RE: [PHP-EVANGELISM] contents needed

Sounds good. You know, I think what I can do is to write about the project I run for he Italian Government. My main concern is the non-discloser chapter of the contract I signed. I will let my boss know about this idea and will see what I can mention and what not. I think it would be quite nice to explain in an article why we have chosen PHP for the nation-level project. It might be quite relevant and impressive to the IT managers. The things I already know: a) I can mention no URLs b) I cannot disclose a single existing code snap (can invent the samples instead) c) I can't mention any time lines of the project (will confirm) So, basically I can try mentioning the size of the project, the technologies used, the standards, the economically-relevant points of view and the reasons of choosing these technologies to accomplish the goals. What do you think?
