We could link to PEAR. In the docs we use the PEAR coding standard for
examples. We should not duplicate the infos from PEAR, imho.

How about having the tutorial briefly talk about it (why it's good to
do), and link to the PEAR coding standard.

Fine with me. Talking about coding standards in general and *briefly*,
linking to PEAR is fine with me ;-)

And to go one step further: talking about documenting sourcecode and
link to phpdocumentor?

Seems a good idea to me ;-)

Maybe in "Hints and Tips" ...
