RE: [PHP-DEV] Added pointers to FAQ, manual to mailing list welcome message.

Hey Jim, I know one of the things Rasmus and I talked about with regards to the new site design was to try and put the manual in some sort of database structure, and maintain it through a web interface. This would make it easier to maintain (especially for us non-SGML folks), and would also mean that moving user-notes into the release docs could be done in one or two mouse clicks. Ditto for adding new entries. Also, there would be a cron job or something that would create the PHP3 files for the site when needed, and one that would create the SGML files for the source tree. As a prerequisite for this, I think we need to move the documentation into it's own CVS tree. And change the structure of the SGML files so that there is one function per file (i.e. mysql_connect() has it's own .sgml file, instead of all the MySQL functions being lumped together). A seperate tree and seperate files will also make it easier if people want to translate the docs into other languages. Those are my thoughts. Rasmus can obviously correct me if I've gotten something wrong. __________________________________________________________________ Colin Viebrock easyDNS Technologies ... be the master of your domain http://www.easyDNS.com -- PHP Development Mailing List http://www.php.net/ To unsubscribe send an empty message to php-dev-unsubscribe@lists.php.net For help: php-dev-help@lists.php.net
