[PHP-DOC] Official DVCS mirrors, was: Commit freeze (moving to SVN)!
Hi, are there people who're interested to host semi-official GIT-/HG-/BZR-mirrors? Doing an initial GIT-SVN sync causes quite a lot of traffic on the subversion server and if a douzens people set up there mirrors in the next week, this traffic is multiplied. If nobody else will, then I'll surely once setup my own GIT-SVN mirror of PHP.

[PHP-DOC] php manual as txt
Hi, I've been looking for a php manual as plain txt that could be included within the VIM help system. So far it seems that there have been a few efforts on this, but no one found it's way in the official PHP CVS. Tobias Schlitt[1] wrote about a script "phpm"[2] from Harald Eide, which isn't available online anymore. Tobias contacted the author several times without any response. phpm was based on a script still available via archive.org[3]. It would be very fine to have a .txt version of the php manual available via CVS (or better SVN ;-) ). This way one could check it out directly in the right directory with an update mechanism included. I'd be disposed to work on this feature, but would need some guidance before: a) What would be the best way: XSLT or a PHP script? b) How to hook into the make mechanism (if necessary)?
