I agree here with David, i think the mentorship would bring a "human" interface for newcomers. Yes we already get newcomers, but we could get much more if we had a human interface instead of hitting everyone with a TL;DR documentation page. Let their first interaction be with a human who can then direct to the page at given points. Mentorship has grown some awesome developers in the community, i think it can do the same in internals. And yes, we still need all of those pages described, this is an extra layer on top of everything being done. If we can get mentors who like to help the i say we go for it. -- Rafael Dohms PHP Evangelist and Community Leader http://www.rafaeldohms.com.br http://www.phpsp.org.br -- PHP Internals - PHP Runtime Development Mailing List To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
