Quebec - 3rd day
================

:Description:
    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.

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`__.

In the evening we went out for dinner to a local brewery with the available
speakers and organizers. Afterwards, some of the speakers (including me) went
to a bar we got recommended from the organizers, named "electric ass" (freely
translated). Also the name created some confusion (especially for our female
guests), the place was really great. The music was pretty much my style (more
or less rock and crossover), and I made a very funny experience: Imagine, you
are coming from Germany, you're sitting in a bar in Canada and they start
playing a song of Rammstein (which is a German rock band), which deals with
the stupidity of America (mostly on the US war politics, of course)! Pretty
strange, but really funny.

So far, it's been a pretty cool conference and I guess, it will stay that way.
As usual I updated my `photos`__ and you can see the most recent ones
`here`__.
