Great, please have a look here: - http://wiki.php.net/doc/howto The basic steps are: 1. Create a few notable patches, to show you're a real human desiring to do real work 2. Someone looks over it and determines step #1 passes :) And also helps with coding standards 3. You apply for a SVN account, it's accepted, with karma is granted to the doc module 4. You make commits 5. The world becomes a better place The most basic issues people have early on are: - Whitespace. Should be no tabs, and XML is intended one space. - The patch mixes in whitespace changes (makes it difficult to read) - Breaks build. Be sure to run configure.php first Use the mailing list or IRC (Efnet #php.doc) if help creating/testing patches (or for anything else) is desired. Regards, Philip
