Great talk. Nice stuff to know. But I have stuff to do when I get home.
Code & Release Management
Eli White (13.Jun.2009 at 02:00)
Talk at Dutch PHP Conference 2009 (English - US)
Programmers seem to have a fairly good grasp on 'how to write code', but not always what to do with it once it's been written. This talk with delve into details about how to manage your codebase, and how to manage releases (often intertwined). It will cover topics of coding standards and focus heavily on how you choose to use versioning tools to handle your development and release processes. It will have a distinct Subversion(SVN) flavor to the talk, but the concepts will not be specific to SVN.

Nice presentation. I know virtually nothing about versioning tools, other than that they exist. That part was interesting for me. But as Andrei pointed out, I would really have liked a view on the entire picture, with CI, unit testing, ...

Perhaps my expectations were wrong, but I was expecting something more indepth and more about the actual release management. This was more a talk about "how to use svn"

Very easy to listen to, but I missed some stuff like how to effectively use svn:externals for common code base management, and maybe some more in-depth of the actual *management* of the releases. But, that's more of an expectation issue, the content of the presentation was fine.

Good talk, smooth presentation, excellent content. Would have liked a bit more depth concerning deployment (especially DB deployment), but the part about branching and release strategies was very helpful.

Excellent overview of deployment basics and the different strategies to do release management. Each with their advantages and problems. All sprinkled with real-world experience and examples. A great talk for for both beginners and experienced attendees.
