As mentioned by Chris, GPL, parts of the API are LGPL (or use other GPL compatible licenses). > Some license-info seems to be missing from our headers > see: http://www.gnu.org/licenses/gpl-howto.html That is a suggestion from the FSF, it isn't mandatory. There are reasons why it should be more detailed that what they are today. For classes I think we should be using something like this <?php /** * Short description of the class * * @author Name <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> * @copyright Copyright (C) 2000-2007 Free Software Foundation, Inc. http://www.fsf.org/ * @license http://www.gnu.org/licenses/gpl.html GNU General Public License * @package appname * @subpackage optional * @version $Id$ */ /* This file is part of phpGroupWare - appname.

That should keep everyone happy. Quick history less, when Kai added the phpdoc headers the longer FSF text was dropped from the headers. Then when there were problems with the headers he left the project.
