It DOES seem like there is enough serious interest to followup with this for real... I'll be posting a new thread in seconds with some basic pre-planning questions... It will be titled "Chicago PHP Conference" I'm using a new thread as I assume some would be interested but have 'killed' the current thread that is more humor-oriented. -- Like Music? http://l-i-e.com/artists.htm -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php

You could just by one of them boat/bus thingies they cram a bunch of tourists onto (at least in Dublin for the Viking tour)...

[PHP] List Meeting NNOT
Here is a thought that a couple of us have shared off-list; why don't we list denizens plan a get together? A face-to-face with the good, the bad and the ugly. A mano y' mano curly brace holy war. Beers and meat. The whole 9.2 Mb's. So, what say you? Shall we start a more formal process? Set a date and a place some time in the near (6 mos. or so) future? All are welcome, from the newest of new to the crotchitiest of old. Double-dog dare you. -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
