PHP at FrOSCon report
=====================

:Description:
    FrOSCon ended yesterday, but because the net was cut down too early, I
    could not blog this one. So I'm doing that now.

`FrOSCon`__ ended yesterday, but because the net was cut down too early, I
could not blog this one. So I'm doing that now.

Congratulations to the FrOSCon organization team. The organization was really
good: The talks were well chosen, there were a lot of helpers on their way to
support the attendants and speakers. The equipment was excellent (the main
conference rooms as well as the dedicated `PHP room`__, where we stayed the
past 2 days). Also excellent was the catering provided for speakers and
helpers, if you consider that this was an almost free of charge event! Great
work, guys and girls, I hope you will repeat this event next year!

For the PHP room, we are pretty satisfied, too. The room equipment was (as
already mentioned) great and all speakers held their talks in time. The
attendance was quite fluctuating and quite different as I expected. So the
talk about "Geeklog" was crowded (about 15 people, beside us 5 from the `PHP
UG DO`__ and `Thomas Weinert`__ from the [ PHP UG KB]), while the most
interessting talk about "A web services framework for PHP5" was not that
crowded (about 5 attendants). Most of the slides from the talks are already
linked on the PHP at FrOSCon website. Todays hackaton was not that
interesting, though, but we only had that, because there was no time to plan
another day of talks. Surely, the PHP room would be more frequented, if the
FrOSCon was not in parallel to PHP Vikinger. Anyway, we will try to avoid this
issue next year and will probably go to organize a 2 day sub-conference to the
FrOSCon, including many talks.

So long, another week of conferences past and I'm quite happy to relax a bit.
Looking forward to the next conf. So long...
