RE: [PHP-GTK] what is going on with gtk.php.net?

However it should be stated here that most GTK+ widgets from 1.2.* are still present, even if many are deprecated, in 2.*. It doesn't take a great deal of time to look at the source headers to see which are and are not marked as deprecated or broken, and it's likely that PHP-GTK 2 will need to enable both if it wants to maintain BC. > So to summarise I'm up for it but we have to be very careful not to > produce another incomplete version of the manual. Completing the existing manual (and expanding it when we see PHP-GTK 2) would be a darn sight more sane than producing a new reference area completely - I don't understand the logic of that, At All! Versioning in the PHP manual is controlled via a script Hartmut Holzgraefe made some years ago - we use it on zend.com too to display versioned function information. It might be worth asking for his assistance when we're looking at covering PHP-GTK 2; I'm not at all sure yet how we're going to approach documenting it, but that's one option. Another would be parallel documentation efforts, but if we couldn't gather the man-power to complete the first set of docs TBH I think it'd be crazy to start again from scratch. It's a good time to see people discussing this stuff, and particularly it's a good time to get people on board with contributions. I think we all know that when PHP-GTK 2 does turn up, there's likely to be a huge upsurge of interest in it. We also all agree that the existing documentation and site aren't inspiring. The question is, who's available and willing to put some work into making it more presentable/welcoming than it currently is? > > tony > > -- > PHP-GTK General Mailing List (http://gtk.php.net/) > To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php >
