Subject: PHP.net endorsed installer method
From: jmertic@php.net ("John Mertic")

In an effort to help the windows installer get more widespread use, I
would like to propose changing the following warning in the manual at
http://www.php.net/manual/en/install.windows.php from:

"There are several all-in-one installers over the Internet, but none of
those are endorsed by PHP.net, as we believe that the manual
installation is the best choice to have your system secure and optimised."

to:

"There are several all-in-one installers over the Internet, but none of
those are endorsed by PHP.net, as we believe that using one of
the official windows packages from http://www.php.net/downloads.php
is the best choice to have your system secure and optimised."

I might be proposing this in the wrong place, but since the verbage
"endorsed by PHP.net" is in there I thought it would be prudent to
post it to internals.
