Hello fellow doc geeks,
As some of you may know, I'm the (theoretical) editor of the PHP manual. An ambiguous title
because we all edit the manual so mostly it's a commitment to spending consistent time worrying
about the PHP documentation. It also means performing tasks that few want to work on, finalizing
tough decisions and pushing them forward, staying positive, and gently guiding new folks towards
helping. Lately I've been spending inconsistent to virtually no time here so I'm stepping
down from this role. Thank you for honoring me with this title exactly eight years ago as of today!
Gosh, those enjoyable eight years went by fast!
I think several here qualify so good luck to whoever takes on this role, and kudos to all of the
fine folks who continue to spend so much time improving the documentation. Looks like Peter has done
well to start the PHP 7 documentation movement so maybe he’s willing to guide this meritocracy
forward :)
Again, thank you for the fun ride, and see you around both here and on IRC.
Warm regards,
PHiliP
