I'd just like to say that when I had to do some PHP for work, I found that
for the most part the user comments were worse than useless - mainly due to
the users posting the comments not having understood the thing they were
commenting on correctly. This meant that at best they were ignoreable, at
worst, confusing. I, personally, don't think user additions have any place
in technical documentation, especially not if it can stay at the very high
standard that Phil has set.
