    There needs to be some standardization of the name of the manual. The navigation and URL say "manual," but the manual itself is titled "Programmer's Reference Guide." On the side menu it says "Zend Framework components" and also has links to the API documentation.

    I propose that the name is changed to "User manual" in all locations (except the navigation and URL, which should remain "manual").

    It could be composed of many of the items under "End-user documentation," structured as follows:

    Zend Framework user manual
    
    1.0 Introduction
        1.1 System requirements
        1.2 Installation and configuration
        1.3 Best practices
        1.4 Tutorials
    2.0 Core components
        2.1 Zend
        2.2 Zend_Cache
        2.3 Etc.
    3.0 Other resources
        3.1 API documentation (core)
        3.2 API documentation (incubator)
        3.3 ?
    A.  A.1 Copyright
        A.2 License
    

    The introduction would include copyright information. I think the coding standards should be moved somewhere else, perhaps a separate contributor guide. The information on the proposal process, license agreement, Subversion repository, etc. is important and should be translated as well.

      Currently, the Zend team uses the name "Zend Framework Reference Manual" to refer to the documentation contained in the DocBook XML files in SVN. The current wiki page above reflects substantial edits and improvements.
