Here is how to add a function:
a) copy xml file from another function, rename it
to ocipasswordchange.xml
b) edit this file, edit out the stuff that shouldn't
be in there. document your function.
c) cd phpdoc/
d) ./configure
e) make test
f) fix errors, repeat (e)
g) cvs add en/your/function/name.xml
h) cvs commit en/your/function/name.xml
That's it. Everything else is taken care of, such as
version numbers. ./configure will modify functions.xml
as you do not touch it. Do not write what version this
was added either.
Regarding NEWS, that's a php-dev thing.
