While `phpdoc -d src/ -t docs` isn't super tricky, someone who isn't familiar with phpdoc wouldn't immediately know how to generate the docs.  If we could just tell them run `phing` and have the default build generate the docs and everything else, the barrier to entry for using it is drastically lowered.

If you don't want to use phing, I'm fine with `make` as well.  Just something that automatically runs the most useful steps for someone either trying to build our code from scratch or trying to contribute.

I am also strong opinioned on this.
