Due to some recent events at a PHP conference involving a company and their promotional tactics, a few members of the PHP community felt the need to share some of their thoughts about sexism in technology communities (some specifically in the PHP community). Here's the list of related posts and their authors:

• Cal Evans
• Matthew Turland
• Stefan Koopmanschap
• Keith Casey
• Brandon Savage
• Amy Stephan
• Paul Jones
• Aral Balkan
• Anthony Ferrara

Several other comments were made on twitter, including responses from the webandphp Twitter account about the comments/posts being made.

UPDATE: The Web and PHP Magazine folks have posted an official response to the comments made about the situation.
