Hi Raphael:

> What patch do you want to know more about?

None.  I am wondering if there is a resource for lay-people interested in 
installing PHP via packages so they can know any eccentricities they will 
encounter when compared to compiling it themselves.

For example, you discussed changing some ini settings and the possibility 
of making short tags throw deprecated warnings.  So I wouldn't be 
surprised if there are other changes in your forks.

Such a document could also be used to clarify/direct your discussions 
here.

This is a little nicer than reading the whole diff file, but as you 
mentioned, it still isn't documented well.  Meaning it doesn't say 
whether a patch is Debian specific or just bringing in something done by 
the PHP team itself.

Thanks,
