So what are your reasons for keeping it closed source?  To stop the Zend 
developers from pinching the good ideas?  I get the impression that this is 
the part Manuel doesn't like - while I myself don't care (I use Windows and 
other such programs every day with no source code available) I can 
understand that for the Hippy-ish, Open source, Everything Free, Pinch and 
Pinch alike community out of which PHP appears to have grown, this could be 
a problem (No Manuel, I'm not referring to you ;-)).

Well I wish you the best of luck.  From my previous attempts, I've found it 
impossible to get money voluntarily, and people aren't interested in PHP 
scripts that cost money either :-(
