Sadly I'll leave the eZ Systems headquarters in Norway tomorrow direction Dortmund again. It really was an amazing time for me in all aspects: Work, people, country and whatever else matters. [Read full post…]

eZ systems recently announced the development of eZ publish Enterprise Components, a high quality framework for development of large scale web applications. The Components will be extracted from eZ publish during migration to the new version 4.0 (which also includes the migration of eZ publish itself to PHP5) and will afterwards be available as an own open source product under the LGPL. The distribution of eZ publish Enterprise Components will be done through a PEAR channel server and therefore utilizing the PEAR Installer. [Read full post…]
Time has been running so fast in the past weeks... No it's time for me to travel direction Norway, to visit the eZ Systems (one of my current employers) head quarters. I'll fly tomorrow to Oslo Torp and will arrive at about 5:00pm (I guess) in Skien. I'll stay there for 3 weeks and will return to Dortmund on August 20th. [Read full post…]

Today I signed my freelancing contract with eZ Systems GmbH (the German part of the eZ Systems company) here in Dortmund and directly begun my work. I will work at eZ about 20 hours a week (beside my studies) and for now I will do project based development of customer solutions, which is mostly the development of inter- / intranet applications on basis of eZ Publish. Luckily, most of the projects they currently have are not the usual content management stuff a web developer does everyday, but more interessting jobs that have real workflows and need real applications. For the latter part of this year its planned to maybe get me into real eZ Publish development, meaning taking part in the new version 4.0 of the product, what would be quite fun, I guess.

I recently received my results from the Zend Certification Exam and (luckily) I passed it. So, from now on, I can call myself a "Zend Certified Engineer". Nice. :) [Read full post…]
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…]
