Hi, all

Inspired by the link http://www.phpinternalsbook.com/, provided by Ferenc
Kovacs in the thread "[PHP-DEV] About PHP NG "document lacking" argument",
I wondered why we don't gather useful links for internal PHP documentation
on the php.net website.

At the time I asked for material to contribute to PHP a view months ago, I
just found a few posts by Anthony (
http://blog.ircmaxell.com/search/label/PHP%20Source%20Code%20For%20PHP%20Developers%20Series)
and I really would have liked to get a link to something more.

Why don't we add links or an internal documentation to the
getting-involved-page on php.net http://php.net/get-involved.php?

------------

Here is the current text for if you want to contribute as a C developer,
what I think is way too less information:

> Development of the PHP source
>
> Someone hoping to become involved in the maintenance and development of
the
> source should be experienced in all of the areas mentioned above, as this
creates
> a strong team; everyone knows how every other part of the project works.
>
> You will also need experience in C programming as PHP is written entirely
in C.

Bye,
Simon
