Going to PHPNW08
In a few weeks a few colleagues and myself will be attending phpnw08, a PHP conference arranged by the PHPNW community.
phpnw08 is a 1 day conference, to be held on Saturday 22nd November 2008, for developers, designers, managers or anyone else with an interest in the PHP programming language.
The conference will have a range of well known as well as more local speakers and aims to highlight current best practice and emerging topics within the sphere of PHP and web development.
This will be the first conference I’ve attended and I’m lucky enough to have my ticket paid for by Spencers. I’m particularly looking forward to the keynote with Derick Rethans, The Power of Refactoring with Stefan Koopmanschap and the final panel with Steph Fox, Ivo Jansch, Scott Macvicar and Felix De Vliegher.
Anybody else who’s going, that’s my picture over on the right, if you see me, please introduce yourself! Anybody who’s in the UK and not going, register now!

That’s fabulous - I’ll see you there! (You can’t miss me, I’m tall and female, that narrows it down to, err, one!)

This will be my first conference as well. Really looking forward to it, possibly more so then the pre/post beer sessions.
p.s. I’m one of Dave’s work colleagues :)

I’ll be there too given that I’m speaking! I’ll be hanging around the PHPWomen stand for a good part of the day, so come and say hello!

I was about to say I’ll make it two, but then I’m female and short :)
I’ll be there from some time on Friday so plenty of time to meet people and quaff beer…

Not sure what time we’ll make it to Manchester on the Friday and we’re meeting up with a former colleague, so not sure were we’ll be. Definitely will be at the Saturday social.
