Hi,

here is an initial patch [1]

1. I converted html to markdown (some issues have to be fixed manually)
2. Pages that was not connected to anything, was removed. This was
documentation for Zend Studio features (like Semantic Analysis). After that
documentation size is 2.2MB !!!
3. Whole documentation is no longer flat (see
plugins/org.eclipse.php.help/docs/source)
4. Based on this structure, maven will generate IPHPContextsIds class,
helpContexts.xml and toc.xml
5. Everything is done while maven clean install via ant and javascript (see
plugins/org.eclipse.php.help/docs/source/build.xml and
plugins/org.eclipse.php.help/docs/source/compile.js)
6. CSS is very similar to Github Atom markdown preview plugin. I hope you
like it ;)

Known issues:

1. Mylyn wikitext sometimes generate mailformed html code [2]
2. Some pages have wrong markdown code
3. We are using mylyn snapshots, due this issue [3]

Maybe someone know better EPL friendly MarkdownToHTML converter? As an
alternative, I could write it in JavaScript :/
