Very nice idea ;) As I tried to propagte the idea of having a separate <book> (!) for developing PHP, and providing it in a separate download, I fully agree on at least consolidating these sections all in one place in the manual. BTW I still think it would be better to open a new book on developing PHP, because this part is **rarely** used by PHP programmers. It would make searches faster, download size smaller, manual generation faster + simpler, etc. > We are still in the "consolidation-phase" of all the last changes in the > past e.g. the install split still isn't solved, this all makes confusion > to the writers/translators (which slows them down or even prevents them > from working) on one hand, slows down builds, and makes the files for > the build-process hard to read. Fully agree with you. Goba
