Over on his weblog, Derick Rethans has posted his yearly summary (just like last year) about some of the major advancements in PHP this last year.

By popular demand here is the PHP Look Back 2003. Just like last year I look back at the most interesting (and sometimes funny) happenings on the PHP mailinglist. I decided not to do any of the PEAR lists as I'm just not involved in that. If you want a look back on PEAR, feel free to bug the PEAR People; I'm sure they will be happy to write one too ;-). As a small disclaimer: This might not always be a totally objective look back, as this is not an official thing. For now, have fun; we start in January.

I love how he has it broken up by months and the major events in each. You never really realize how far we've come until you look all the way back to January of last year...

Thanks to PHPEverywhere for the link.
