Topic: Question about license

Hi all,

People I have question related with license.

We are working on php framework and there we are using xajax framework (technology).
The framework should be commercial. So why I want to understand does we have any problem related Xajax license?

Thanks

So, as long as you don't sell xajax is if it were your product and don't remove the copyright notice it's all ok. If you'r going to earn money with a product that makes use of xajax you should always keep in mind that: Donations keep open source developers happy smile
