Is this project really discontinued?

Response to: Is this project really discontinued?

[edit]

I was spurred by people using this page as evidence of phpdocumentor being discontinued (see http://stackoverflow.com/questions/8697701/what-is-the-status-of-phpdoc). A new version (1.4.4) was just released 2011-12-03, and the roadmap at http://pear.php.net/package/PhpDocumentor seems to indicate the projects still has a planned future. Also, on sourceforge the project isn't listed as "inactive" when doing a search ("inactive" being a search criteria available in the sourceforge interface). If anyone has definitive evidence either way, please comment below. If no definitive "discontinued" status is determined, should the project be marked active once again?

phpDocumentor has not been "discontinued". However, the Docblox project has superseded phpDocumentor as a usable doc generator for PHP 5.3+ code. As such, phpDocumentor will not be enhanced to meet 5.3 features. There is work in progress to bring the two projects together, to ease user transition from one to the other. There is also an effort underway to properly define and codify the "phpDoc" docblock syntax into a "PSR" standard. --ashnazg (talk) 21:27, 17 January 2012 (UTC)[reply]
