Streams is/are a PHP API for use by extension authors, so as Markus
said, we need some kind of C API section in the manual.

I think the Zend docs should be integrated into php docs, or at least
"renamed" so that they apply to extending PHP rather than just Zend.
Then the streams API can be documented within that doc tree.

If the doc guys could prepare the way, I will fill in the docs - the
last time I set about documenting some stuff, the whole doc tree was
restructured in between the time I checked it out and the time I checked
it in again. Since I'm not subscribed to php-doc (I get too much
mail already!), I want to make sure that this stuff is set-up correctly,
so I don't waste my efforts :-)

Thanks,

--Wez.
