I really just wanted to say hi to Ulf though. I really like the PHPDoc tool; thanks for writing it. I tried the other two tools out there, and yours worked the best. The code used in PHPDoc and the new OO Forms in php-lib are both pretty inspiring. Are you still working on these things though? Are you the guy to go to for questions or the one to send patches to? I'm just checking for the future. - Brent
