I agree, PHP developers know best what´s best for PHP developers. I just fail to understand why zeev is blocking this, sorry.

just to clarify, PHP developers != core developers, in this case... because I *assume* that core developers are more on C/++ instead of writing PHP apps...

I agree with you to some extent, but it's not always true. There are issues (e.g. the references issue, that started this whole thread) that an end user could have never gotten to accurately, without consulting the people who wrote the code. What I meant, anyway, was that I don't see any reason for the PHP documentation team to expand its scope, as the way things are working now is ticking quite nicely. Starting off with tutorials instead of referencing existing tutorials means, basically, starting to do the same work from scratch. There are lots of different tutorials and articles on lots of different sites, and referencing them from the manual would be a much better start, then starting off from scratch.
