I was granted CVS access to the PHP.net website repository today. I will be making (discussed, approved) changes and updates to improve the php.net website.
I will be starting with janitorial issues, to familiarize myself with the code and change process. Most likely targets will be simple (but important) items such as fixing the CSS compliance warnings, fixing the html output so it can validate, and the like.
Then I will move on to open tickets regarding functionality and broken code, work my way towards overarching design issues, and once I have some comfort with the process, the code, and the people involved, I will propose some redesign ideas (before making changes, of course).
In a nutshell, I'll simply polish and shine what already exists, because it works, and then move towards larger improvements.
I am not - I repeat NOT - taking suggestions or the like. I'm the new guy, so I want to help out with the workload they currently have first. Once I've got a few months under my belt, maybe we'll go there.
In the meantime, I was proud, and wanted to brag a little.
