PHP @ FrOSCon 2009
The last year the PHP Usergroup Dortmund organized a PHP subconference at the Free and Open Source Conference (FrOSCon) in St. Augustin, near Bonn, Germany. This year another project, Java, will do this, to emphasize the diversity of open source projects and communities.
This year we will organize a PHP room for the third time, like in 2006 and 2007. We hope that we can keep up with the amazing conferences from the last years, and we expect it to be a wonderful open source event again. We would love to welcome you in the PHP room, either giving a talk, or just for a chat or listening.
Our call for papers has ended on 23.05.2009, thank you for your submissions.
You might also want to submit talks to the main schedule of the conference, which also accepts PHP related talks. For talks in the main conference your costs will be covered as usual, details are on the dedicated website.
To be able to cover travel expenses, or offer free coffee in out room again we would love to have you sponsor us. Check out the Call for sponsors page for details.
About
The PHP room will be open for hacking, discussing and chatting beside the talks at the conference.
Members of the PHP Usergroup Dortmund, as well as many other usergroups (like Hamburg, Köln/Bonn, Bielefeld,...) will be available in the PHP room for technical questions and discussions all the time and are looking forward to meet all of you PHP and web enthusiast in reallife.
