PHP Developer highly interested in Python (web development) withsome open questions...

[Tamer Higazi]

Hi!
My brother is dreaming and dying for python and swear that it is the
ultimate killer application language.

I am coding Webapplication in PHP5 and ask myself if for python are:

- application frameworks like: "Zend Framework" and ezComponents
- What is the Zope Applikation Server? Is it also a Webserver like the
Apache or Tomcat Webserver?

- Is there a way of Round Tripp engineering based on UML XMI Files to
generate python files (with it's dependencies) ????

- Let us assume, I want to write a Web application in Python (what I did
now in PHP5) and want to distribute my work under commercial usage.

Can I encrypt my work and generate Licence Files for Customers who would
purchase my End-Sollution like with:

- Zend Encoder
- IonCube
- SourceGuardian

???

I just ask, because I have finished a product and will encrpyt it with
the Ioncube encoder based on PHP5.

for answering all my Questions, I would thank you guys very much

re encryption

I ran a small software company in the '80s. We did the unthinkable:
shipped our software with a money-back guarantee. Anyone could buy the
software, copy it and then request a full refund.

Return rate: 0.5%. Of the returns we guessed that about half of them
were for perfectly legit reasons.

Treat your customers as if they're all honest and ethical. Most of
them will be. The rest will defeat your encryption efforts or just
skip your product.
