Lone Star PHP Conference
29 - 30 Jun 2012 at Addison Conference Center

Perhaps I'm just ahead of the game, but these were all things I was very well aware of already. It was still good to reinforce that I need to be diligent in my escaping and input filtering, but how about some examples of current attacks, and any new methods for dealing with those?

I also agree that Geoff needs to work on his presentation skills a bit - get into it! And speak up a bit. ;)

This is a neat topic, but I found myself wondering how I could ever integrate this with my process using a relational database like MySQL (which is still the most popular DBMS for PHP devs). This wasn't really covered, which maybe is a limitation of time, but seems to also by limited by the software. Perhaps some mention of it at the beginning or end would suffice.

Good overview of the benefits - and limitations - of OpenStreetMap

I'll echo some of the other comments, why show us some of those new bits when you're just going to tell us that using them is wrong? (Or using them in a particular manner.)

And while most of us understand that you want us to listen to you versus just reading what you say off of a slide, I found myself taking notes on one thing you said, then missing the next thing - which may have been on the slide so that I could catch up to where you were in the lecture.

I think the talk could have been improved by making it more of a "PHP 5.4: The new stuff I think is awesome" - and only covering those things, but in more depth.

Good examples, and a good description of what problem he was trying to solve with the material presented. I think the specific example used was a bit too specific to their process, and I would have liked to see a more traditional web application example that would have helped the ideas sink in better.

A lot of us need this kind of push, and it's great to hear it again. I think my only recommendation would be more focus on specifics of how to get a user group going, or how to start speaking (that is, more "how-to" sprinkled in with the "you should").

Love it. Rock Band was great. The selection of drinks were awesome. The people were amazing. Lots of fun, and look forward to the next one.

Very excellent talk. I have quite a bit of bills to pay, but will begin working on them.

The question asked in the QA about how to convince management ought to be included in the talk. This is always a question, and there is never information on it.

Otherwise, while I feel "overwhelmed" with the debt, I now feel inspired to "pay it off" and like it is possible as well.

Didn't know much about this going in, but learned quite a bit by the end. More real-world applications of the project would be helpful to better understand where it can fit in my projects.

I was looking for a more high-level overview, and perhaps more detail on the Manifesto. The talk was well done. The examples were impressive and well done. It was good for those already somewhat familiar with the Micro PHP Manifesto, but useful nonetheless for those of us that will be learning more later.
