That is indeed something we talked about couple of years ago, and I still like that idea. I am however unsure of how practical it is. User Groups haven't exactly been actively submitting their events there since, as Tim Lytle pointed out, it doesn't feel like its aimed for User Groups. For conferences however, that was a separate issue I wanted to solve, replacing our conference page with joind.in conference listings - and maybe inline some conference tips with UG listings per country... Thats all a separate thing though IMO. > Probably related, but I've been thinking of giving people.php.net a total > over-haul.

I've always wanted to do something with people.php.net but as you mention.. Time is always in the way and its not exactly a high priority :) -Hannes -- PHP Webmaster List Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
