I'm afraid you didn't understand me right. I meant, that when a
DEVELOPPER makes a new function, he wants it (the function) to be
mentioned in the docs.

Of course, it's impossible to add all contributors there. The usual
'substantial contributor' rule should be applied.

I haven't done that yet, if someone feels he should add it, please, go ahead
:)
Otherwise, I'll do it sometime next week.

I haven't been following the phpdoc-proj for a long time, but I think he
should be mentioned.

I'm sorry! But wouldn't it have been even worse if it were all separate
commits?

That is what I remembered... Of course it doesn't matter because
funcnames are case-insensiteve (though on Zend you can read somewhere (don't
know anymore where)) what maybe that will change), but for the sake
of uniformity and clarity, I'm still standing in favor of the all-lowercase
policy.
