phpDocumentor is a seperate project from php and has serveral mailing
lists http://sourceforge.net/mail/?group_id=11194 and even forums
http://sourceforge.net/forum/?group_id=11194 where you can get answers
to your questions - check out http://phpdoc.org for more information.
php.general is not the place for questions about specific scripts
