First, this topic could be the following of http://marc.info/?l=phpdoc&m=128686832705180&w=2 , I suggest everyone not in touch with it to read it carefully.
I started a new one to make things go faster, as I consider that subject having slept enought by now. The subject is clear : clean the official PHP Documentation from mixing [old-and-not-supported-versions] infos and [up-to-date-versions] infos in *a lot of* reference pages If I don't give version numbers, it's because they are subject to debate. Last time (http://marc.info/?l=phpdoc&m=128686832705180&w=2) , we suggested that [old-and-not-supported-versions] = PHP4 + PHP5.0 + PHP5.1 ; and [up-to-date-versions] = PHP5.2 + PHP5.3 Last time, we had different options, but the one that came up (no official vote has been made) is moving [old-and-not-supported-versions] in a specific chapter, to keep an history, like it's been done for PHP4 OO model , and prevent all the reference manual pages from mixing [old-and-not-supported-versions] and [up-to-date-versions] stuff. So now I would like every interested head to keep that debate and feed it if not fed enought, vote for a solution, and implement it. I should have been granted to commit on the whole doc by now and not only the one I translate (french), so I can handle the diff according to the plan we will decide by now. All this work could be done together with the new version of the manual actually worked on (http://www.php.net/docs.php?beta=1) Regards, Julien.Pauli
