• eZ components hit the road

  on Mon, 30 Jan 2006 23:31:42 +0100 in The odd bit

  eZ systems has released version 1.0 of the eZ components, an enterprise ready general purpose PHP platform (that sounds fancy). In the two weeks since release candidate 1, they’ve focused on writing tutorials for each component to make it easier ...

  Yesterday way my first anniversary with eZ systems. Exactly 1 year and 1 day ago I signed my contract and started working for our German eZ branch. While being first employed as a freelancer (for my own wish) I soon started to work exclusively for eZ, whe

  Yes, it's true, exactly 3 years ago I wrote my first blog entry. By that time I would never have imagined, that I would keep blogging for more than 3 years and that more or less constantly. My weblog now contains 458 entries. Surely, there is some bulshit

  Hi Toby, congratulations for the new release!
  
  On a sidenote, don't you feel just a bit ashamed to flood Planet PHP with that much publicity on ez? Don't get me wrong, I like ez, but if you have a look at the past 2 weeks, it looks like a major marketing surge. Distributed over several different blogs, I'll grant that - but judging from the scant information in these posts (simple release infos for the most part) they are no more than marketing in my eyes.
  
  Planet PHP is an aggregator, and when I write something on the PHP Application Tools blog I always feel the responsibility to the community when I write posts that will show up there. Personally, I would really feel ashamed if I wrote that much about one of our tools without really giving some info that will be useful on top of the release information.
  
  Again, I know you are not alone in this, I'm just writing this here because your post with the nice banner in it really tipped my tolerance threshold. Maybe I am making a fuss about nothing, but that's how it feels anyway.

  congratulations, I will need to check this out. The only thing holding me back is the 5.1.1 requirement, as we currently develop on 5.0.*

  Hi Sebastian!
  
  Sorry, if I got over the top with my excitement of our 1.0 release. Just to let you know, this is my personal blog and eZ itself has nothing to do with it.
  
  I take you criticism seriously and will try to keep myself a bit down in the future. I think you know, how it is, when you created something new and you think it's so absolutely cool, that you could rant for hours on it's greatnesses.
  
  Thanks for your feedback! :)
  Toby

  Now I feel bad about having brought this up :) I know this is your personal blog, and I am not here to tell you what you may write and what not - just to consider that what you write in the PHP category goes a little further than that.
  
  Oh, and I definitely don't want you to keep yourself down! Okay, I realize that's highly contradictory, so let me explain.
  
  PHP is growing, and companies / frameworks etc. basing their success on PHP need ways to get the publicity they need - like you do with the ezComponents or I will for a software I am currently working on (for my own company). Planet PHP is a *very* tempting tool for this, but I believe Planet PHP's mission is not to act as a marketing platform. As an alternative, what I would like to have is a dedicated PHP marketing platform for PHP companies and products. Like Planet PHP, but which would allow me and anyone else to freely boast (or rant on for hours) about their products without irritating anyone. It would also be a good place for decision makers to find the products or services they need.
  
  Maybe something like that already exists - but if it does, it clearly is not good enough if I don't know about it...
