The current PHP conferences on joind.in have been notified that they can add a "phpdotnet" tag to their events, and some of them have chosen to do so (this is opt-in, so we won't forcibly edit anyone's event to include them). You can see the list here: https://joind.in/event/tag/phpdotnet We'll let event organisers of other PHP conferences know about the tag when they submit their events for approval, so after a couple of years of emailing them all the time, we should have a decent awareness of this link. If you have people contacting you directly to add their events, they can simply add to joind.in and tag to be included (but they do need to comply with our requirements, which are a clear description at least partly in English). Thanks Paul for all your hard work on this! Regards Lorna -- Lorna Mitchell http://lornajane.net
