Hi,

I've just read the news about the Zend acquisition:
http://www.zend.com/en/resources/news-and-events/newsroom/press/3683_rogue-=
wave-software-acquires-enterprise-php-leader-zend-acquisition-broadens-ente=
rprise-strength-across-top-five-development-languages
I'm curious how will this change the License of the Zend Engine.
If anybody not familiar with the situation, the Zend Engine has it's own
license, the Zend License:
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/PHP_License#Zend_Engine_License and that
refers to the Zend Technologies and zend.com everywhere.
I would like to ask Zeev/Andi about what does the acquisition mean for the
php project and if they already have a plan about what to do with the Zend
Engine license in the future.

ps: just noticed that http://www.zend.com/license/2_00.txt is a 404 even
thought that is linked from php-src/Zend/* and from the wikipedia page on
the Zend Engine License.
