Yay! The PHPNW site is now online with all the details of the PHP North West Conference to be held on November 22nd, 2008 in Manchester, UK. The conference is specific to PHP and aims to develop the skills of the developers in the local area. Look out for local speakers, some drinking, and generally a good crowd. Put the date in your diary, tickets will go on sale soon.

We’re also launching the call for papers for this event – it runs til 21st September and I’m really hoping we’ll see some good entries covering a wide range of topics. We are including some shorter slots as well as the traditional 1-hour presentations, so hopefully you can think of something you’d like to talk about for one of those units of time.

If you’ve got any comments or questions about the event, the talks, submitting a paper or anything else PHP-north-west-y, then add a comment or drop me a line.
