What will the "power" workshop about by the way ? <snip name="abstract"> <snip name="title"> PEAR - Not just a fleshy poem </snip> <snip name="subtitle"> A deep introduction into PEAR and it's usage </snip> PEAR (the PHP Extension and Application Repository) is the collection of high quality reusable PHP Components to make your life with PHP more comfortable. PEAR components provide a hughe variaty of common development tasks, a unified packaging system and defines quality standards for PHP developement. This power workshop gives you a detailed overview on what PEAR can do for you and how to use PEAR. The first part will consist of a general introduction into PEAR and the usage of the PEAR website and installer, as well as information on coding standards defined by PEAR and the internal structure. The second and third part will show you several PEAR packages and their usage in detail. We plan to give an introduction on MDB, LiveUser, SOAP, Image_Graph, XML_Transformer, HTML_QuickForm and HTML_Progress and several other PEAR packages. The fourth part is open for questions and requests on specific PEAR packages. Seize the chance to make us show your preferred PEAR package or the package you allways wanted to know how to use it. </snip> > About the lottery, I am not sure we need this kind of advertisement, but I > am maybe too old fashioned.

I'm really curious in this. Regards, Toby
