Hi all, as far as I have seen php is on the way getting a module system. Some kind of convention how to build libraries. If I'm right it's a great step ahead for us php developers (oh man, sounds like a phrase...). But wouldn't it be better to have further on coding and documentation standards. I'm thinking of something similar if not equal to javadoc. javadoc stands for basic code documentation and seems to get a widely accepted way of placing documentation within the source. I'm quite sure I don't have to argue about the benefits of a coding standard for a single developer. Code developed some weeks, months or even years can be far easier understood than undocumented chunks of letters und semicolons. But I want to think about the meaning of coding and documentation standards when it comes to libraries and reusable source. What would be the CPAN without a standard documentation system... So, is anybody working on coding and documentation standards?
