Re: PHPCon 2002 *PHP.NET News Item*

Hi Goba, Actually, we're not trying to compete with the PHP Conference in Germany. I don't think too many people from the US plan to attend that conference, and we don't expect too many people from Europe to come to our conference. However, because we are so close to the conference date, every day really counts for us. So if you could please do us a big favor and add us to the PHP.net home page today, rather than waiting an extra day, I would really appreciate it. I have nothing against the European PHP Conference, but we need all the exposure we can get, and we don't have much time, so it would be a big help if you would please consider not holding up our announcement on their account. Their conference is also two weeks after ours, so they have more time as it is ... Thanks so much for your consideration of this. I really appreciate it. -Adam On Thu, 5 Sep 2002, Gabor Hojtsy wrote: > > My name is Bryan Richard and I am the conference chair for PHPCon 2002. > > Rasmus will be speaking at this event and suggested we pass this > > information on to you as a news item for the php.net center column. > > > > Below is an abbreviated version of the press release both with and without > > HTML.
