7PHP.com: Interview with Stefan Priebsch - A Co-Founder Of The PHP Consulting Company aka thePHP.cc

Mon, 18 Mar 2013 11:52:22 -0500

On 7PHP.com today there's a new community interview, this time with Stefan Priebsch, one of the founders of thePHP.cc and well-known speaker.

In this edition I talked with [Stefan Priebsch @spriebsch] who is one of the Elite members of The PHP Consulting Company, thePHP.cc. He is regarded as a highly knowledgeable gentleman, has rewritten an array of books related to Software Development and software life cycles; in short Stefan is an acclaimed expert for PHP software development. One of his talks which I highly recommend is "Why MVC is not an application architecture". Fortunately it's a video, so you will be able to both see and hear Stefan talk about it.

They talk about Stefan's current involvement with the language and community as well as some of his own past. Topics include:

How he sees the state of PHP now versus when he started with the language
What kinds of tools he uses for his development and debugging
What he likes and dislikes about the language
Some of his good (and bad) moments in the community and at conferences

Lorna Mitchell's Blog: PHP Days and PHP Unconference Europe

Thu, 24 Feb 2011 10:11:33 -0600

For those that weren't able to make it to either the PHP Unconference Europe or the PHP Days training that followed, Lorna Mitchell has posted her retrospective of the two events, briefly covering her experiences as both an attendee and speaker.

I spend most of the last week or so over in Manchester for a combination of excellent PHP-related events: PHP Unconference Europe on Saturday and Sunday (with a rather excellent warm-up party on Friday night!), followed by the PHP Days training on Monday and Tuesday.

She talks about the voting process at the unconference (the scientific "stickers" method) and her talk that was voted in - "Speaking Tips for Developers". She also talks about the PHP Days training where the members of thePHP.cc presented on best practices, good development, security, etc. (audience's choice).
