Philip, Thanks for all your contributions! I believe it was Dan, Peter, and yourself whom I first encountered upon my journey into helping with the PHP documentation. At least, the most memorable of the names. So thank you guys for being such active members of the community. Although I have not contributed much of anything myself in the last year or so, I hope to see and hear great things from all of you. #GoPHP On Wed, May 20, 2015 at 9:25 PM, Philip Olson <philip@roshambo.org> wrote: > 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.
