Hi,
I'd like to add to Mike's note and say that I especially appreciate and value the work of those doing documentation.
I really believe that PHP's easily available and thoroughly detailed docs has majorly contributed to its widespread usage. Is there anything comparable to php.net? I haven't come across anything better in the seven years or so that it has been serving as an online manual. It is to the credit of the PHP team for the way they have promoted such an integrated system of documenting PHP. That is what allows things like knowing exactly what version is applicable to a function, extensive cross-referencing, and being up-to-date on the most recent changes, among other things.
Thank you.

To all,
Congratulations are in order.
PHP5 is a monumental testament to open source. More importantly, it's also a glowing example of what software _can_ be when you have a dedicated group of committed individuals who take pride in their work, even when there isn't a paycheque or benefits package to compensate for it.
My thanks to each and every one of you, the magnificent doc team, and especially the core guys that have shlogged on PHP all these years. PHP has and continues to supply me with the tools I use every day to feed my family.
Humbly and sincerely, my thanks to you. Nice stuff.
Best,
