Kudos. I've added you to the 'web' group, which means you should have full karma to edit/delete/add pages under the web namespace (http://wiki.php.net/web). We do not give out SVN accounts like candy, but as we are in need of more people working on the websites we don't require alot.. posting couple of patches to this list, and showing interest in continuing the work will probably be enough. The web infrastructure isn't the easiest to setup.. A quick 'workaround' is however possible: $ mkdir ~/php.net $ cd ~/php.net $ pear install doc.php.net/phd_php $ svn co https://svn.php.net/repository/phpdoc/modules/doc-en && cd doc-en $ php doc-base/configure.php $ phd -d doc-base/.manual.xml -P PHP -f php $ cd .. $ svn co https://svn.php.net/repository/web/php/trunk phpweb && cd phpweb $ (cd include && for i in countries.inc last_updated.inc mirrors.inc pregen-confs.inc pregen-events.inc pregen-news.inc; do wget "http://www.php.net/include/$i"; done;) $ (cd backend && for i in ip-to-country.db ip-to-country.idx; do wget "http://www.php.net/backend/$i"; done;) $ (cd manual && ln -s ~/doc-en/output/php-web en) Do note; this was more or less written from memory so there could be typos or forgotten steps.. If this doesn't work.. rather then spending ours figuring out why, just ask :) These instructions could be your first edit on the wiki.. :D -Hannes
