This isn't about PHP, it isn't about copyright, it is simply a bad package that was badly thought out and badly implemented with the wrong design in mind. The idea of a web server written in PHP is ludicrous.
In my very personal opinion I would say that a _framework_ that allows a PHP application have the basic functionality of a web server is useful when the application might need a remote interface. Remember that PHP isn't only for the web anymore, there are good programs developed making use of PHP-GTK, PHP-GTK2, and I guess there will also be for PHP-Qt. But I agree to the fact of creating a full web server in PHP isn't the smartest and better way of creating a web server. Even tough there's the possibility to compile the PHP scripts and create a binary with the Roadsend PHP compiler, I don't expect it to introduce many important and useful features that other web servers don't have (but I'm always open to the fact that every day new things appear).

But as others said, it seems that PHP packages are particularly prone to bugs. Now, THAT'S a good criterion.
Some PHP scripts are bogus and bad coded, but it is usually the PHP compiler the one that is bogus, causing all the PHP scripts that depend on certain PHP built-in functions to be affected some how. As Thijs said, there's no licence problem because of nanoweb being GPL'ed since nanoweb isn't linked to the PHP compiler in any way. -- Atomo64 - Raphael Please avoid sending me Word, PowerPoint or Excel attachments.
