I have talked yesterday with Hartmut Holzgraefe and Georg Richter
about the future of the PHP manual. I made the following suggestion,
the PHP manual could or should be the main PHP User Manual. The
documents and text file you mentioned should or could be collected
in a new PHP Developers Guide. Gabo´s HowTo is IMHO the first step
in the right direction.
