Hi,

Today, in a revision break I have been browsing around the various
PHPDoc related websites to remind myself what is available and I was
thinking that although there is a lot of information, it is not all
centralised in one place. I also think it is also quite confusing for
anyone new to start contributing. Coming back to an idea I had a month
or so ago to write a quick start guide, I thought it might be worth
gathering all the stuff that is available and putting together a full
resource site. I think the best place to do that would be on
http://doc.php.net/

For example, there is the most up to date guide (I could find) at
http://doc.php.net/php/dochowto/index.php but the main php.net website
links to  http://www.php.net/manual/howto (which seems to be the same
thing). There is also http://wiki.phpdoc.info/DocLinks and the useful
tools at http://www.phpdoc.info/meta/

My idea is to gather all the resources available (with the permission
of the owners) and put them all on http://doc.php.net/ with links to
everything on that one site. I would also like to have a quick start
guide available from the homepage so that it will make it easier for
phpdoc members to find everything but also assist new people.
Presumably the php.net website can then link to the doc.php.net site.

What do you think?
