Quoting:


Q. So, what's the point of the Zend license? When should I be concerned
about it?

A. You should be aware of the Zend license in two cases. First, if you
publish patches to the Zend scripting engine library. The Zend license
allows Zend Technologies, Ltd. to use those patches royalty-free (see
the license for exact details). Second, the license prevents commercial
use of the Zend scripting engine library to build commercial
applications.

<note well>
If you want to use the Zend scripting engine library commercially (for
example, as a macro language in a commercial word processor you're
writing), you must contact Zend Technologies, Ltd. for licensing
information.
