I have not much of the legal mumbo-jumbo comprehension, so, correct me if I'm wrong, shouldn't external code that's to be included in the php codebase meet these legal formalities so it doesn't become a liability?

I believe it might be valid, think about writers that use such pseudonyms, but I'm not sure... ------=_Part_23556_8778763.1198203320612--
