Only a -few people are involved in more than one documentation project currently, -and that limits the know-how sharing, which would otherwise be possible and -desirable. All of the documentation teams use an early fork of the original -PHP manual build system. These systems evolved independently, and took over -some improvements from the others on an occasional basis (the PEAR -documentation team uses a variant of the revcheck developed for phpdoc for -example). This site is aimed at getting documentation efforts closer, and -provide more tools and information for manual authors and translators.</p> + +<p> + This site has instructions and tools for building, translating, and + maintaining the + <a href="https://www.php.net/docs.php">PHP Documentation</a>, which + is currently available in multiple languages plus the original English. +</p> <h2>Join Us!</h2> -<p>The developers of PHP extensions all -have access to the PHP documentation modules, although the different projects -have different policies of accepting contributions. You are welcome to join -our efforts! Authoring documentation for an extension is the second best thing -to implementing the extension itself if you are interested in the -capabilities, features and usage possibilities even in extreme conditions. We -also have translated versions of the different manuals, and most of the -translation teams are always in need of more helping hands. In case you are -interested, you should contact the relevant mailing lists. The projects and -translations have separate mailing lists.</p> -<h2>Latest News!</h2> -<p>On March 2014 site was almost totally rebuilded. Now it uses same design as -new php.net pages. Many of tools and features has been removed, because they weren't used. -If you think that site is lacking some of them, please contact us on <code>php.webmaster</code> -mailing list.</p> +<p> + Besides the PHP language itself and its core features, the documentation + includes material about most <a href="https://www.php.net/extensions">PHP + extensions</a>, which often could use additional contributions. +</p> + +<p> + Most of the translation teams are also in need of more helping hands.
