• I love WiFi! (en)

  by Tobias Schlitt on Wed, 19 Nov 2008 23:29:46 +0100

  I really love it: I'm currently sitting around in a car repair shop and have to wait for about 2 hours for my car to be repaired. Dead time you think? Not really, since a T-Online-Hostspot is available. :) I wish there would be WiFi all around the world... And maybe even a bit cheaper! ;) [Read full post…]

• This really is a scandal (en)

• PHP Conference Quebec ending (en)

  by Tobias Schlitt on Thu, 27 Nov 2008 18:00:29 +0100

  Yesterday was the last day of the PHP Conference Quebec 2005. Luckily, I will stay until sunday and therefore I had the chance to take part in some exciting events organized by the PHP Quebec people. The main conference was pretty much as every other one. It mainly consisted of hacking some stuff, talking to all those speakers and attendants and of course of holding my second session. So, business as usual, of course. [Read full post…]

• Zend certification - First try... ;) (en)

  by Tobias Schlitt on Wed, 19 Nov 2008 23:29:46 +0100

  Zend is sponsoring the PHP Conference Quebec 2005 and forethat they offer free Zend Certification for visitors and speakers. Since it's free, I tried passing it (mostly for fun) without any kind of preperation (neither example exam, nor the certification guide). Would be cool if that worked, although it's been quite a challange in some way. [Read full post…]

• PEAR 1.4 is dead - PEAR 2.0 to come (en)

  by Tobias Schlitt on Wed, 19 Nov 2008 23:29:46 +0100

  In an inofficial meeting the PEAR Group decided on the future of PEAR today. The main problem with PEAR is the BC topic and that therefore the migration of PEAR to PHP5 is pretty slow. To not be bound to their own rules, the PEAR community retired the release of PEAR 1.4 (which has been in alpha phase right now) in favor of starting a complete redesign for the PEAR installer which will be PEAR 2.0.

• Quebec - 3rd day (en)

  by Tobias Schlitt on Thu, 27 Nov 2008 18:00:29 +0100

  Yesterday was my 3rd day here in Montreal and the first pre-conference day of the PHP Conference Quebec, where the tutorials/workshops took place. I held my PEAR workshop before noon, and indeed, it went really well. People were highly interested in the project and our packages and the conversation situation was quite good. The slides and examples are available here or in a couple of minutes from the PEARWeb support section. [Read full post…]

• 2nd day in Quebec (en)

  by Tobias Schlitt on Thu, 27 Nov 2008 18:00:29 +0100

  Today was my second day in Quebec, more exactly in Montreal. After I woke up at about 7:00 a.m. (which is pretty late, if you take into account, that this is 2:00 p.m. at home) I started working on my slides again, because the weather seemed still not very good (better than yesterday, of course). When I finished that (around 11:00), the weather had changed drastically... It really was marvelous! I just wanted to go out to get some food and see some of the downtown, when Damien called me and told me that he needed a speakers room to store the conference equipment in and asked me if it would be ok, when I changed the room (to one having a safe). I agreed and switche... to a room on the 23rd floor... ;) You can see both differences (weather and room) below: [Read full post…]

• On the way to Canada (en)

  by Tobias Schlitt on Wed, 19 Nov 2008 23:29:46 +0100

  Currently I'm standing in front of a very uncomfortable web-terminal at Frankfurt a.M. (Germany) airport, simply to blog that I'm on my way to PHP Quebec Conference. I recently arrived in Frankfurt (from where near I recently moved my home away) from Düsseldorf and now have to wait for 2 more hours to get my connection flight to Montreal. [Read full post…]
