The PHPDocumentor team would like to announce the release of PHPDocumentor
v1.0 release candidate 1.  This is a stable non-beta release candidate with
all features implemented and known bugs fixed.

PHPDocumentor is a JavaDoc-like automatic documentation generator for PHP
written in PHP.  It is the most versatile tool for documenting PHP.

For users new to PHPDocumentor, PHPDocumentor uses an event-driven parser
and intermediary data structures that allow it to perform at a level other
automatic documentors for PHP cannot achieve:
--parsing any php file, with multiple classes and functions in the same file
--fully compliant with even the most esoteric php syntax ($string = <<< EOF,
for example)
--ability to generate multiple output formats
--extremely fast parsing
--error/warnings by line number and file to allow for debugging of
documentation tags
--multiple output templates to easily customize the look of generated
documentation
--extensive documentation of the package, including a detailed specification
for tags
--open source, LGPL

Changes from version 0.4.2a include:
--resolution of many bugs
--the addition of intermediary parsing structures that nearly double parsing
speed
   and allow for new Converter class to process output
--improved class inheritance and package handling
--error and warning system
--improved inline documentation and external documentation

PHPDocumentor is ready for immediate use documenting any PHP project,
