In an effort to help the windows installer get more widespread use, I would like to propose changing the following warning in the manual at http://www.php.net/manual/en/install.windows.php from: "There are several all-in-one installers over the Internet, but none of those are endorsed by PHP.net, as we believe that the manual installation is the best choice to have your system secure and optimised." to: "There are several all-in-one installers over the Internet, but none of those are endorsed by PHP.net, as we believe that using one of the official windows packages from http://www.php.net/downloads.php is the best choice to have your system secure and optimised." I might be proposing this in the wrong place, but since the verbage "endorsed by PHP.net" is in there I thought it would be prudent to post it to internals.

I'll copy them on it, but I wasn't sure if a round of +1/0/-1 wasn't in order thru internals first. Making the change isn't the issue, but I just want to not make a statement on behalf of all of PHP.net without someone saying it's OK ;-> On 8/17/07, David Coallier <davidc@php.net> wrote:
