API Documentation Generation

Dear PEAR Developers,

Please allow me to introduce myself first: I'm Mike van Riel and am the
Lead Developer of DocBlox (http://www.docblox-project.org), which is a
Documentation Generation Application inspired by phpDocumentor.

At the past Dutch PHP Conference I had the pleasure of talking to Helgi
and demonstrating DocBlox to him. During this demonstration it became
apparent that DocBlox might have added value for PEAR2 and/or PEAR1.

As such I wanted to approach you to see whether you are interested in
using it?

You can see a demonstration at http://demo.docblox-project.org/pear .

I am available to create a template for both PEAR and PEAR2 (or assist
with its creation).

What DocBlox can offer is:

* Faster and less memory intensive processing of the source code. Zend
Framework has reduced their build time from 80 - 100 minutes down to 5
to 10 minutes.
* Incremental processing; if you keep the intermediate file then parsing
speed can decrease with another 80% (transformation speed is unchanged).
* Full support for PHP 5.3 (also works on PHP 5.2.6+ but can't process
5.3 projects then).
* An active project with a new release with new improvements every
month.
* Backwards compatible with phpDocumentor DocBlock syntax and forwards
compatible with new features (i.e. @api tag support).

If you'd like you can view the source code at
http://github.com/mvriel/docblox

I am interested to hear your feedback!

Thanks in advance,

Mike van Riel
