PHP JSON licensing and PHP 5.5

• M4N14C 13y ago
  How many reasons do you need to stop using PHP?

  Great part: While it may seem trivial, the author of JSON.org “politely refuses” to amend the clause. "the author"...as though there's any point in pretending it isn't Crockford, right? EDIT: Also, the "don't be evil" license pretty much precludes it from being used for PHP, right? I mean, just on moral principles?

  This post is slightly misleading and also 6 months old, it's a Debian issue not a PHP issue. Tim, if you had upgraded from the version provided by php.net you would not have seen a problem. We have not removed json and we will never release a version of php without json support built in. Any changes in 5.5 is due to whatever distro packaging you are using which we have no control over. https://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=63520 https://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=63520

  The best thing about morals, like standards, is there are so many to choose from!
