Announcing Auckland December PHP meetup Read below for speaker information and RSVP now!
Meetup: Thursday 4 December, 6:00 PM (one hour earlier than was usual a while ago) Where: NatColl office, NatColl building Cnr KRoad & Symonds St, 5th floor Auckland 021 5678 53 Please RSVP here: http://php.meetup.com/10/calendar/8681158/ *** Main topics *** Speaker 1: Berend de Boer, Xplain Technology Topic: REST >From Wikipedia: Representational state transfer (REST) is a style of software architecture for distributed hypermedia systems such as the World Wide Web. As such, it is not strictly a method for building what are sometimes called "web services." The terms "representational state transfer" and "REST" were introduced in 2000 in the doctoral dissertation of Roy Fielding,[1] one of the principal authors of the Hypertext Transfer Protocol (HTTP) specification. The terms have since come into widespread use in the networking community. Possible Speaker 2: Rory Fogerty, Integratorz Topic: CMSMadeSimple >From www.cmsmadesimple.org: If you are an experienced web developer, and know how to do the things you need to do, to get a site up with CMS Made Simple is just that, simple. For those with more advanced ambitions there are plenty of addons to download. And there is an excellent community always at your service. It's very easy to add content and addons wherever you want them to appear on the site. Design your website in whatever way or style you want and just load it into CMSMS to get it in the air. Easy as that! I'm hoping to give more details on what speakers will cover over the next 1.5 weeks. Pizza: Due to the earlier starting time we will order pizza to feed our hungry mouths. This will likely take place over the phone, as Dominos website runs on .asp. Any suggestions for a php based pizza website welcome. Speakers: please contact me on [EMAIL PROTECTED] or 021 5678 53 to discuss topics with me. We are always looking for speakers on open-source libraries and great websites. *Remember*, this is the unique opportunity to show off the latest project that you have done and get an opportunity to show it to a greater audience in person. We are actively looking for people that want to spend 10-15 minutes on their latest project. No one knows your project better than you, no reason to be shy! (Dan??) Please get in touch with Jochen: [EMAIL PROTECTED] to book you in for this meetup or a later one. Thanks again for the people at NatColl, especially Steve Yeoman for letting is use this venue. Please bring spare coins for beer and juice ($2) and $10 to share pizza!
