Maybe we could deploy it already in a separate folder and get a broader test
audience. And only after a few weeks of "wild testing", replace the current
We could, but that would add extra 1.7 GB of data to the mirrors just
out of the blue.
Also, we would need to hack the error handler to check if the user
wants the phd version or not. Not to mention the confusion for the
user when all his bookmarks (php.net/manual/en/page.php) keep
displaying the old style...
I was just talking about the english version, but I understand it wouldn't be that easy..
However, I had planned to register http://docs.php.net as a "special
mirror" in the mirroring system and put a news entry on php.net "If
you want to help out testing our cool new docbook renderer then choose
"doc.php.net" as your preferred mirror on http://php.net/my.php"
during the RC phase...
OK, but remember to put in some mechanism to redirect people to other mirrors when the RC phase is over.
For what its worth, I had a quick chat with the php.net webmaster
about it few days ago and he really liked the idea.
btw, who is the php.net webmaster? :P
