- moving old editor list to contributors.xml and adding my name there as an editor (do you see me Steph?) - adding note maintainers list generated a few minutes ago with the notes_stats.php script (note that user 'irc' was not found in the current CVS user list, I assume he is the same as 'irchtml', plus Sebastian Picklum seems to have two CVS accounts (spic and sp), both of which he used to maintain notes. What comes now: - someone please dig up the script which generated a summary based on the phpdoc CVS logs / news server data, so we can get an idea of who to list as past author+editor, and who is currently to be put there (I don't know where that script is) - suggest yourself as a manual editor if you think you will be accepted by the community! - complain on the user note editor list, if you think that something is unfair in there (you are listed but you should not be, or the other way around) - complain if you think anything else is problematic :) BTW I have added myself as an editor to break the untouchable list and not to monopolize that place, so once again feel free to propose yourself if you see you fit there (or complain about myself being there :)). git-svn-id: https://svn.php.net/repository/phpdoc/en/trunk@163450 c90b9560-bf6c-de11-be94-00142212c4b1

<acronym>PHP</acronym>, which stands for "PHP: Hypertext
|
|
Preprocessor" is a widely-used Open Source general-purpose
|
|
scripting language that is especially suited for Web
|
|
development and can be embedded into HTML. Its syntax draws
|
|
upon C, Java, and Perl, and is easy to learn. The main goal of
|
|
the language is to allow web developers to write dynamically
|
|
generated webpages quickly, but you can do much more with PHP.
