Selling a php application
hello,
We have built a php application for our customer but now we have finished it and they are using it we are planning to sell it. However we have never sold any software and want to ask any advice from people in regards to what steps we need to take before we can legally sell it. Any advice on licensing laws, ip, copyrighting etc... Any advice or links to relevant info would be much appreciated.

yes the components we are using are Mysql, php and PEAR (calendar and date), I thought as these were open source they are free to use commercially. But i will read the license agreements for these.

thanks, it will be a hosted php web application on our servers. And we dont plan on giving them ftp details so they will not be able to download scripts etc.. We are also going to make our own website to sell it. The only thing that concerns us is if there is anything we need to do or register by law before we sell or whether we have to set up some official licensing etc... are we are free to do what we like with that?
