1) I don't know how to update the HOWTO on php.net and this was brought up once, summary: wait for docweb 2) Nobody knows when the upcoming phpdocweb site, codenamed "docweb", will be online. It however is where the updated php doc HOWTO will eventually always live. * http://doc.php.net/php/dochowto/
IMHO the doc howto at doc.php.net is supposed to be up to date. If not, it should be added to the cronjobs. If this is handled, the dochowto at php.net should be removed completely, and a redirection should be put in place to the doc site. Doc.php.net also should host a howto download file somewhere for those, who have modem access, so they can get the howto for offline browsing.
Now that http://doc.php.net/php/dochowto/ updates weekly and given the fact that we don't propose a downloadable format for the howto on www.php.net, why don't we switch the URLs ?
OK, just removed the howto copy bit from the cronjob. I was unable to find, where it gets generated after all, since the mirror targets in phpdoc does not include the howto, while it somehow should get generated, as otherwise it would not be copied.
I also disabled the revcheck generation code on the build machine, so revchecks will also disapear from the mirror sites after the next builds.
Doc.php.net is now the place to go for these stuff.
