Re: How to contribute for PHP Internals

Hi Philip, Here is one suggestion for the page http://wiki.php.net/doc/scratchpad/wheretohelp <http://wiki.php.net/doc/scratchpad/wheretohelp>In the Writing an extension - What is PECL? - Why PECL? we can give a link to PECL page on pear website or wikipedia link for PECL. It would be good who want to know more about PECL. We can provide following links- http://pecl.php.net/ OR http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/PHP_Extension_Community_Library#PECL One more option is to show a small pop-up (just like as CVS on the page) about PECL.
