congrats to the Zend folks: the framework is showing up in more and more places. even a couple of apps i've recently downloaded.

"I really think Adobe has very exciting technology for building RIAs and recommend people familiarize themselves with Flex. You will probably quickly get a good feeling for what use-cases you'd want to use Flex in and when Ajax. In fact, you are even able to use both within the same Web application."

interesting and creative news from Adobe

should be interesting to see what this does for Zend's uptake

kudos to the Zend folks for really making the effort to connect with attendees, great to see. bummed i couldn't make it this year.

"Microsoft is already proving it can do better. Zend has nothing but positive to report about its cooperation with Microsoft." - some thoughts from Mark on partnering w/ Microsoft, both positive and negative

Mark's marketing recommendations and thoughts on the impact open source has had

good take on the "open source company" debate from Mark; like the invocation, in particular, of Justice Stewart's concurring opinion - wish i thought to phrase it that way

this is terrific news; very glad to see more Java v PHP walls come down

will have to take a look at this alongside of options like Cake, the Zend framework, etc

need to write more about this, but in the meantime, listen to what the Zend folks have to say on the Eclipse + PHP combination

"Stefan Esser announced that he will retire from the PHP Security Response Team. He is frustrated with the slow response he receives for his alerts." - the pace and process of security improvements is always tough to manage

agree with pretty much everything in here, particularly the bit about Ruby and "PHP has had a lot of successes and has a vigorous, aggressive culture. I don’t think Sun is doing enough to support it." - that's true

one of the speakers from the Zend Conference, but i can't seem to find a feed anywhere - weird

the Zend folks are requesting that conference related content be tagged with zendconference2006 - done and done

Tim's right; this should be a fun session - hope to see you there

met John at the last camp when he demoed mastrbeta; great guy, and did a good job leading the mashups and PHP session i attended - excellent pickup by the folks from Zend

great diagram detailing the web of VC investments in various open source players

this is pretty funny; i know Andi's posting this at least semi-sarcastically, it is actually sort of interesting

pretty good feature matrix of the various PHP frameworks

some praise for the Zend Framework from a Gentoo dev

some debate over who's responsible for PHP - timely comments from Andi; also check out the Update

wow, that didn't take long; i just synced, and can confirm it's in the library

early feedback on the just released Zend Framework

some very interesting insights from stephe on the Oracle open source acquisitions

looks like the International PHP Conference was a great success - congrats Bjorn ;)

Wez on the Zend PHP framework; very reasonable, rational take

anybody speak Danish? i think this is a good review of my talk, but can't tell

Manley's wasn't blown away by my talk, and FYI there were no speakers notes included

i don't know if PHP is going to sleep past noon this week, but i sure will be ;) - anyhow, appreciate the "brilliantly simple" description of my slides, even if i can't quite see it myself

eWeek, September 20th, 2005

probably the only time you'll see me and Adam Bosworth receive similar billing :)

looks like Zend's getting /.'d - i can't get through yet

interesting - PHP + .NET?

thoughts of mine on PHP
