Nothing stops it from working perfectly well on the years of code that it still supports! Finding people with the time to ADD new features is the problem especially when they are not currently using those new features themselves.

It is one of the packages that I have managed some patches on myself, but some of it's esoteric ways of working make contributing a little difficult.

What do you suggest as an alternative - is there any?

DocBlox (http://www.docblox-project.org) is a rising project which offers support for all these new things and uses less processing time and memory. It is goal is to serve as an alternative for phpDocumentor (and an improvement, it has several features of it's own such as incremental parsing).

DISCLAIMER: I am the Lead Dev of DocBlox.

(and before you asked: yes I tried patching phpDocumentor but its core design would not allow enough room to patch the memory and performance problems, which prevented me from running it at our own project)
