Graphics with Cairo

speaker was good. content made me go hrmmm a few times to much. Why use a scale from 0 to 1 to describe RGB values while most of the world uses 0 to 255. Same goes for method names and constructors. Cairo has potential but the API needs a more critical look

Not very interesting as Cairo is rather immature. I was hoping for more information regarding PDF generation.

very good talk, a little to fast but it covered all I wanted to know about Cairo for php. Always nice to see someone who really knows the topic from the inside.

At the last minute I decided I wanted to see something else than just the architecture and QA sessions so I just walked into Michael's talk. It was pretty impressive to see that Cairo was so much faster than already known libraries like GD and ImageMagick. These are the kind of slides that convince me to look further into it. And although the rest of the presentation was mainly an explanation of the classes and methods it sure helps to get started quickly.

A nice break from the norm, the talk was informative and included some simple code examples. A good starting point for getting to know Cairo.

The flow of the speaker's style itself was a little slow and jerky, but the content was very good.
