That will remain as-is. And I'll only document my 2.x > series. Still I'd favor having documentation for HTML_Page2, not generally HTML_Page. There are some packages which still actively support there 1.x-versions, maybe because 2.x is php5-only or similar. And since a new major most times also means a drastically changed API, I'd prefer to have api-docs for both major version. If you're not going to document HTML_Page that's fine with me - but naming should be consistent in my eyes, so adding the "2" to the name is imho needed. Stefan
