The folks over at PHP Magazine have released their latest edition - the March-April 2005 Issue.

Have you heard tales about strict coding standards and rumours of bureaucracy at PEAR? And, has that put you off from attempting to write a PEAR package? The Cover Story in Issue 02.05 should help allay all such fears. Robert Peake recently went through the process of contributing his first PEAR package. In this Issue he narrates his experiences on submitting the draft proposal right up to the approved release on the PEAR Web site, offering tips, advice, and insight on how to go about ensuring a successful software release.

This issue includes articles such as: Spotlight is on the high achievers of Zend's PHP 5 Application Coding Contest, Text_CAPTCHA and Automated Submissions, Windows build system for PHP 5, and Combining PHP and JavaScript (and form integration).
