Well, our September meeting was another rousing success! We had lots of new faces and plenty of returning nerds; thanks to everyone who came out! Chris Chubb gave us an illuminating look at PHP 5.3, and Ken Nordquist (a Rubyist but otherwise nice guy) gave a brief presentation on Flow Player - a free, open-source flash video player.
This month, the folks at Zend will be presenting live via remote (that's TV speak for "in their underwear", I think) on the "Zend software stack", both the open-source Community Edition and the more advanced (and supported) Professional Edition. Edward Kietlinksi, a Zend Solutions Consultant, will use the PHP apps Magento and Drupal to showcase the Zend approach to all-too-common problems of isolating performance bottlenecks, troubleshooting code, and live debugging. Edward will also show off Zend Studio 7 (based on Eclipse) and Zend Framework. There will also be a raffle at the meeting for cool Zend swag!
This isn't their only planned appearance, however, and we've got tons of talent waiting in the wings! Derek Gallo has a presentation on performance and scaling, and we'll bring back the "Ask-an-Expert" panel again, of course. Bring your questions; we have the experts.
For those of you who haven't been paying attention, we've changed our meeting location from Stardust. We're meeting at the clubhouse at Camden, downtown, courtesy of Demetrius Ford, our resident resident. The address is:
688 N Orange Ave Orlando, FL 32801 (map)
You can park in the parking lot in front of the complex and in the adjacent lot, just not in the garage. The clubhouse is inside the main complex, secured by a maglock, and it's super sweet. We'll try to leave someone outside to lead people in, but try to come earlier rather than later. If you get locked out, just ping one of us by cell phone or Twitter; I'll try to keep an eye on ye ole @orlandophp account.
Looking forward to another great meeting this month,
David @ OrlandoPHP.org

The Orlando PHP December Meetup
0km away in Orlando
Thanks to everyone who came out to the October meeting, thanks to Zend for presenting, and thanks to Derek Gallo for filling in for me again while I was out of town at php CodeWorks in Atlanta. If you've never been to a professional conference before, particularly one for PHP, then I highly recommend it: php CodeWorks was a blast and very affordable. Well, that doesn't do you much good, though, does it?

Holiday Meetup
81km away in Tampa
Hi! The last meet-up was great! Let's have another one and keep the momentum going! Topic: Managing Jobs and Productivity! Description: How do you get into 'the zone' and stay there? How do you handle scheduling, client management, distractions, last minute requests, etc. This isn't a code-focussed meeting per say, although I'm sure we'll bust out some source eventually. Extras: [list]*Last week Jayse shared his on-the-fly thumbnail generator.

Episode #094. Dan Benjamin (Playgrounder, Hivelogic) is back this week and we had some help from Adam Keys with stories. Also, I shamelessly steal a Mitch Hedberg joke and apply it to Rackspace. In case you missed it last week, we’re now accepting stories and feedback to @railsenvy on Twitter. Yo.
