consulting and PEAR

I was wondering what I'm allowed to advertise, if anything, as PEAR being a feature to ensure my web apps will for the client. Should I just say I can provide database abstraction? Or can actually say that the apps utilize PEAR and its functionality? Was just wondering because I know it can be a bit different with open source and GPL... I'm not really selling the applications but my "services." Was just wondering what is the correct way of handling this.

Thanks in advance.

i didn't understand you.. can you please rephrase your question?

I was just wondering if I'm explaining the features of my application to someone, am I allowed to specifically say the "PEAR"'s features allow for database abstraction? Am I able to use the name selling selling my software or does that break it's license being an open source project?

Hope that made more sense

My thought would be that since PEAR uses the same liscense as PHP, consider this: Do people advertise that they develop in PHP? Sure they do, so the same rules apply for PEAR.

I see your concern, but when you think of it this way, everything falls into place.

amaddeus might be onto something..

i would go with that.. ;)
