Hey, great project :) I think it's quite important and will be very interesting. We'll see a lot of new IDEs for PHP, then. Hey, how could I help with something? Just lemme know ;)
I'm playing now with the .manual.xml It looks great. Quite giant, hehe.. I think I'll "parse" it, to truncate only the data I need, which is (for now, at least) only the functions with their parameters, return value and description. Once again, thanks for your time.
