PHP Advent 2009Six years ago, I became aware of the PHP community. I joined it three years prior to that. I’m privileged to be a part of the 2009 edition of PHP Advent. This year, my post is about the PHP community. If you have any comments, feel free to leave them here.

Recent PostsMicrosoft Web Dev Summit 2009For the past three years, Microsoft has hosted the Microsoft Web Development Technology Summit, inviting a small group of community leaders, project developers, and prominent members of the PHP community, primarily for the purpose of eliciting feedback on how to better support PHP on Windows. I’m privileged and honored to be invited back for a [...]
CodeWorks Wrap-upI never wrote about days 13 & 14 of CodeWorks, nor did I post the slides on October 7, like I promised to attendees of my talks. After CodeWorks, my website underwent weird spikes in traffic, causing it to be extremely slow. I thought the problem was DreamHost, so I moved everything to a slice [...]
POST vs. PUTThis morning, Matthew writes about building RESTful services with the Zend Framework. I have a lot of thoughts on his post, and I might blog more about it later, but right now, I want to focus on David’s comment: I think the next thing you should cover is how to retrieve put parameters and maybe even [...]
Building Titanium with PHPSeveral months ago, I started the process of embedding PHP into the Titanium platform. After several sprints of work, the Appcelerator team was finally ready to merge my work into their master branch, and Martin Robinson worked to bring the implementation to maturity. The current release of Titanium Developer does not yet have the PHP [...]
CodeWorks Days 11 & 12 (Washington)Departing Miami, I gazed upon the Atlantic Ocean as we cut through the clouds, making our way farther from the shore, and the thought occurred to me that this tour—these two weeks—has taken me from sea to shining sea across this great country. What a fitting thought to have as this next leg of the [...]
CodeWorks Days 9 & 10 (Miami)Miami CodeWorks, so far, was the smallest conference but I still think some important connections were made, especially with regard to user group contacts. At the Microsoft happy hour on the second day of the conference in Miami, I was able to meet Brendon Van Heyzen, who is interested in starting up a PHP user [...]
CodeWorks Days 7 & 8 (Atlanta)Atlanta was the mid-point stop on the CodeWorks tour, and since it’s my home, I decided to use it as an opportunity to spend time with my family before heading off on the second half of the tour. As such, there was very little hallway track activity for me, but I did get a chance [...]
CodeWorks Days 5 & 6 (Dallas)Yesterday, the CodeWorks B-Team (the session day team, a.k.a. Team Awesome) ran into a bit of a travel snafu that actually worked out better for us. On the way to the airport in Los Angeles, we got stuck in traffic caused by an overturned cement mixer truck. And by overturned, I literally mean the cement [...]
CodeWorks Days 3 & 4 (Los Angeles)I’m writing this from Los Angeles during the session (or conference) day of CodeWorks. The “A Team” (tutorial team) is en route to Dallas today, while the “B Team” (session team) gives their talks. Our flight yesterday was short, but we didn’t arrive at the hotel until nearly 4pm, and then I had to leave soon [...]
