What for? Refcounting is not visible from userspace in no way, why do you
need it in the manual?
It´s an interesting fact for switchers and experts,
I don´t think it´s a good idea to hide all technical details,
we´re open source so why we´re closed technology
Calling existing PHP manual "few" is a huge underestimate, IMO.
But let's not bring there everything and the kitchen sink. Manual should
be just reference, not all-about-the-subject tutorial.
You just said. It´s reference ;)
reference for technical details IMHO, a manual should contain as much
useful information as possible
like lars says...
I agree--there are lots of things about the language that don't really
need to be explained right in the manual itself. Although an appendix
may not be a bad place for this sort of thing, along with the
extension programming notes and other things that 99.7% of users won't
ever need to know.
