  • CONAPHP - COngresso NAcional de PHP no Brasil

    CONAPHP - COngresso NAcional de PHP no BrasilThe members of several PHP user groups have gathered to organize a large PHP event in São Paulo on October 18, 19.

    This event will present talks of Andrei Zmievski (Smarty, PHP-GTK, PHP 6 Unicode), César Rodas (PHP Programming Innovation Award 2007, Google Summer of Code, WordPress), as well Manuel Lemos (PHPClasses) and other regular speakers of the Brazilian PHP scene.

    In Portuguese:

    Devido a desentendimentos com a empresa organizadora, inúmeros membros de grupos de usuários de PHP do Brasil não apoiam mais o evento anteriormente conhecido por PHP Conference Brasil.

    Em vez disso, essas pessoas se organizaram independentemente e criaram um novo evento para promover o PHP devidamente no Brasil chamado CONAPHP - Congresso Nacional de PHP. Este evento vai decorrer em São Paulo em 18 e 19 de Outubro dentro de um evento maior de software livre CONISLI 2008. São esperados pelo menos 1500 congressistas.

    O CONAPHP vai contar com palestrantes internacionais reputados como Andrei Zmievski (Smarty, PHP-GTK, PHP 6 Unicode) e César Rodas (PHP Programming Innovation Award 2007, Google Summer of Code, WordPress), e Manuel Lemos (PHPClasses) para além dos habituais nomes da cena de PHP Brasileira.

    Já se espera que o CONAPHP será mais um evento de PHP bastante concorrido. Se você estiver interessado em participar como congressista, vá já inscrever-se para aproveitar o preço baixo de inscrição. Os interessados em palestrar também devem já propôr as suas palestras no site do evento antes que termine o prazo.
