Announcing an *** UPDATE *** to February Meetup for Greater San Francisco Bay Apache LAMP Group!
What: *** Olio Web 2.0 Tool Kit and TidyHTML ***
When: Thursday, Feb. 19, 6:30-8:30 pm
Meetup Description:
6:30-7:00 pm - Pizza, Refreshments and Networking
7:00-7:45 pm - Shanti Subramanyam, Sun Microsystems, speaks on Olio Web 2.0 Tool Kit
7:45-8:30 pm - Michael Tougeron, CBS Interactive: GameSpot.com and GameFAQs.com; grepmymind.com, speaks on TidyHTML.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Olio is a web2.0 toolkit to help evaluate the functionality and performance of web technologies. Olio defines an example web2.0 application and provides three initial implementations : PHP, Java EE and RubyOnRails (ROR). The toolkit also defines ways to drive load against the application in order to measure performance. We will describe Olio and explain how you could use it and also showcase some unique ways in which it is currently being used.
Bio for Shanti:
Shanti Subramanyam is a Senior Staff Engineer at Sun Microsystems Inc. She is currently leading a project to analyze and improve the performance of web2.0 applications using open source technologies on Solaris. She has previously been instrumental in the development of several industry-standard and proprietary benchmarks for database and Java technologies.

Michael Tougeron, CBS Interactive: GameSpot.com and GameFAQs.com; grepmymind.com:
Validating user submitted content for forums or other commenting style systems can be a complex nightmare. Using regular expressions and other common methods of validation fall short of the requirements for most external facing applications. TidyHTML (http://php.net/tidy... & http://tidy.sourcefor...) greatly simplifies this process. This highly technical talk will go in-depth on how to use Tidy to parse and then validate HTML input. Working code examples will show how Tidy compares to other validation routines.
Michael Tougeron (http://www.grepmymind...) runs the PHP engineering team for GameSpot.com and GameFAQs.com at CBS Interactive, formerly CNET. The combined forums of GameSpot & GameFAQs serve millions of page views each day and are one of the largest forum systems on the Internet. He is also the organizer of the San Francisco PHP & MySQL meetup groups.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
