I think the documentation part in this case is not as problematic, because the interface has been thoroughly documented in the ICU project. Most of your next questions can be answered by reading http://userguide.icu-project.org/datetime/calendar
This is ICU docs, not PHP docs. Most PHP users wouldn't even know where to find it, let alone how to use it applied to PHP. We need something to list the functions and what they do.
It's ICU docs, but they're applicable here after doing the obvious substitutions (replace all integer types with PHP's integer, etc.). You can list the functions with php --rc IntlCalendar or similar and then refer to that document for the functions' behavior. Of course, this doesn't replace PHP documentation, but it's not urgent at this stage given PHP 5.5 being one year away and the ICU docs giving almost all information to those who want to play with it.
Hi Gustavo, Can you add at least placeholder stub pages to the PHP docs sooner rather than later? Or even just one page listing the changes? Thanks, Chris -- christopher.jones@oracle.com http://twitter.com/#!/ghrd
