Re: [PHP] PHP Meetup, how many of you have signed up?
I've signed up, and I suppose I would qualify for the Washington, DC area, though that is not strictly the locale I have setup :o) As it's new, I'm sure many will be signing up in the coming weeks. Personally, I can hardly wait to sit around and chat with other PHP developers. Sign up now if you haven't all!

In my area it would just be me and one other. I was hoping to get to see enough to start a users group. There is only a total of 268 signed up world-wide. * * Want to meet other PHP developers * * in your area?

Re: [PHP] PHP meetup
I just signed up for this, as I would LOVE to be able to talk and interact (in person) with some PHP Developers. As I'm still learning (as we all are), it would be a great opportunity for me to be able to meet up and discuss this wonderful language with my peers. Hopefully that'll come to pass! :o) I emplore all PHP Developers to sign up for MEETUP. You have nothing to loose, and everything to gain! Hey, it would be great if some of these grew into regular things or even turned into full-fledge PHP User Groups... I think it might even be good for PHP user groups to just go ahead and have an informal meeting of this sort anyway. I'm in. -- Like Music? http://l-i-e.com/artists.htm -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php

[snip] Want to meet other PHP developers in your area? Check out: http://php.meetup.com/ Pretty nifty idea... especially given the lack of user groups in the U.S. [/snip] Excellent idea Jon! I have set up for the San Antonio area and I have invited some other developers (some who haven't done PHP yet) to the gig.

There is probably already a user group in your area if you live near a major city. According to the PHPusergroups.org web site [http://www.phpusergroups.org/groups.phtml?menu=groups] there 189 PHP user groups in 52 countries. While there is nothing in my area (closest is Houston, over 3 hours away :^[ , and I thought there would be one in Austin, even if I don't want to drive an hour to go drink an adult beverage or two.) but you may find one already exists in your area. Meetup is a cool idea, and appears to be gaining ground slowly. Jon, did you cross-post to all PHP lists? Jay Code! Yes. A programmer's strength flows from code maintainability. But beware of Perl. Terse syntax... more than one way to do it...default variables. The dark side of code maintainability are they. Easily they flow, quick to join you when code you write.

RE: [PHP] PHP meetup
Nope... didn't crosspost anywhere... (I'm only subscribed to the general list.) My problem is similar -- I'm in Philadelphia and there doesn't appear to be a group here at all. There's some crossover with the local linux users group, but not a lot. -- jon -Original Message- From: Jay Blanchard [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Friday, July 12, 2002 11:48 AM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: RE: [PHP] PHP meetup [snip] Want to meet other PHP developers in your area?
