Okay I'm cnonvcied. Let's put it to action.

Finding this post has solved my poerblm

I attended this event as the first PHP ccoefrenne for me ever (shame on me, I know). But I do was impressed. The program lured me to the congress in the first place, because of the topics. Second, the location was brilliant for a low-budget event. Well done.What I gained from the event? I already told Joshua that he made me have value for the buck on his tips on MySQL anyhow. The remaining presentations were a solid plus to me. Like an introduction on PHP extensions was very welcome. I hope to see more extensions added, because the room was full of programmers familiar with C.To finish it off, the event was pretty slick organised (at least in the English room). Very good timing on the effort of the presenters and very smooth transitions between the presentations. Chapeau!
