====== Current State of this Wiki ======

This wiki is still under going development. Here are some notes on the current state:

  * People with a valid svn.php.net password can login without any additional configuration. However you cannot change your profile.  To change your password or recover a lost password use the [[http://master.php.net/forgot.php|master.php.net]] tools.  You should have all rights to manage the wiki, but you do not have access to the admin panel.
  * We are leveraging [[http://wiki.splitbrain.org/wiki%3Anamespaces|namespaces]] to better separate content.
  * **Especially in the beginning, try to think a bit when you add content to ensure that we start things off somewhat clean. I will be trying to housekeep the wiki a bit to prevent things from going totally crazy. Please do not add project specific links here and do not create project specific sections (like your favourite framework or library)**
  * Users familiar with other wiki software, like MediaWiki (Wikipedia), may use the [[http://www.wikimatrix.org/|wikimatrix.org]] or [[http://wiki.splitbrain.org/wiki:markup_compare|markup_compare]] tools for wiki syntax comparisons.
  * Please do not move wiki pages around because this loses the changelog/history. For now, either ask an Admin to do the move, or wait for the ability to do this properly yourself. This feature will exist in the future.  

A list of open [[TODO::wiki|todo items for this wiki]] is also available.
