     DocBook on Linux or Windows, or what conventions you
     should follow when writing phpdoc files, please refer
     to the PHP Documentation HOWTO. You can find it in
-    the howto directory of the phpdoc module. If you
-    don't know how to produce HTML files from those XML
-    files there, please download the howto.html.tar.gz
-    from that directory.
+    the howto directory of the phpdoc module which can
+    be build locally like so:
 
-    It can also be downloaded from the web easily:
-    http://cvs.php.net/co.php/phpdoc/howto/howto.html.tar.gz
+        make howto
+        cd howto/html/
 
+    It can also be downloaded from the web or viewed online:
 
+        http://www.php.net/manual/howto/
+        http://cvs.php.net/co.php/phpdoc/howto/howto.html.tar.gz?p=1
+   
+    For questions on how to use CVS, consult the anoncvs docs and 
+    apply to your (phpdoc) needs.  Remember to use your PHP CVS 
+    username/password and checkout the module named phpdoc.
+    Translation information is located in the HOWTO.

+FILE LOCATIONS
+
+    The old archived phpdoc files still live in the phpdoc module 
+    for historical purposes, do NOT edit them.  For example:
+    
+    OLD:  All function definitions and reference info for extensions
+          used to be stored in single xml files:
+
+          {lang}/functions/{extension}.xml
+         
+    NOW:  They are now separate and the format looks like so:
+            
+          {lang}/reference/{extension}/functions/{function}.xml
+                                      /configure.xml
+                                      /constants.xml
+                                      /ini.xml
+                                      /reference.xml
+
+                                      /functions.xml (autogenerated)
+
+QUICKREF
+    
+    a) Make the change.  Use spaces not tabs.  Be sure to carefully 
+       watch your whitespace!
+
+    b) Look at your unified diff, make sure it looks right and that 
+       whitespace changes aren't mixed in:
+        
+           cvs diff -u path/to/file.xml
+        
+    c) Make sure no errors are present, so at the command line in your 
+       phpdoc source directory run:
+
+           make test
+          
+       Always 'make test' before commit!
+
+    d) Commit your changes
+      
+           cvs commit path/to/file.xml
+        
+    Read the HOWTO for more information.  After reading the HOWTO,
+    email the phpdoc mailing list ([EMAIL PROTECTED]) with questions 
+    and concerns.
