PHP License 3.0.1

The PHP License v3.0.1 is a non-copyleft free software license. It is incompatible with the GNU GPL because it includes strong restrictions on the use of “PHP” in the name of derived products. This license is used primarily with the PHP package itself and by a few related open source projects.
