Are there any "best practices" for obfuscation of plug-ins
For instance, if I design a plug-in that I don't want others to further develop (making it harder for them to go away and make their "own version") is it possible to use something like Zend Guard to obfuscate the code?
I have no experience with using Zend Guard, but I'm wondering if Xenforo even allow plug-in developers to obfuscate the plug-in PHP files?
Also, is there anything in the ACP to prevent other developers at looking for the call backs your plugin uses?
[I know obfuscation inst full proof, but it sometime makes it "not worth while" to try and copy / change the source]
