Hello!

After we fix a few bugs*, let's write a documentation news entry for php.net. 
Here's a rough draft, how does it look? Is there something else we want people 
to know about or explain?

----
The PHP documentation has several features that the PHP community should be 
aware of:

A. pman - PHP man pages

   $ pear install doc.php.net/pman
   $ pman strlen (this shows a text version of the strlen docs)

B. Enhanced CHM - contains user notes (over 25,000 of them)

   - This additional CHM file is listed within the documentation download pages

C. Online Documentation Editor - allows anyone to edit the php manual (send 
patches)

   - Url: https://edit.php.net/
   - Eventually every manual page will link to it (links already exist in beta 
mode, at bottom)
   - Anonymous patches are welcome, but please be nice

We hope you find the above features useful, and as always, please write 
phpdoc@lists.php.net with feedback.
----

* Bugs:
  - pman: does not render tables properly
  - editor: wait for live preview to be fully implemented?
  - enhanced chm: is this chm bug free these days?

Regards,
Philip
