Talk comments
The lobby is really too small for this amount of people, maybe next time organize lunch in another bigger room.
I thought this talk was a really well setup and presented talk. I liked the real world examples, and how it was put together. I feel it gave an excellent introduction into a very simple seeming yet complex topic.
If I had to provide critisim, I would only say that I would have liked to see a little more on the connection of the principles. How they all tie together, rather than existing as separate items. I don't think this detracted at all from the talk, but it could potentially improve it slightly. Again, it was a really good talk that I would definitely recommend that every Object Oriented developer should know and understand.
It's just amazing to see someone talk about how a team of 1000 engineers work together and gets things done. An inspiration!
A thousand times beter than the previous talk you gave at the conference :) Really well prepared, informative and relaxed.
Content wise I would have loved to see some practical use-cases and implementations (delve deeper into the chat client you demo'd)
A very interesting talk. The material was quite good. The one thing I would suggest is providing a little bit more flow to the presentation. At times it felt like it jumped around and lacked a consistent message.
Perhaps some more "high level" info could be provided (such as the memory overhead of a Zval, or the memory overhead of an array/array element).
As it stood, it was extremely informative and showed the power of the Zend memory manager. I would definitely recommend this talk for anyone who wants to understand what's going on under the hood a little more.
Very interesting talk about the internals of composer. Even if you already use composer this is a nice addition.
The only part I was missing was something about the custom installers and how to use them.
Good theoretical talk, lighthearted and informative with a few good practical tips.
CMF really has piqued my interest for a long time as the concept is nice for people who have to re-invent a CMS over and over. But the talk didn't really want me to get started with CMF right away.
You gave a really good overview of how CMF is built and how it differs from vanilla Symfony but the jumping between slides has really killed the presentation for me, you lost me when someone asked a question in the audience and suddenly started explaining something that really should have come at the end.
Next time when someone asks a question don't just jump to the part of the presentation to answer the question but just tell them that their questions will be answered in the presentation later on. Now you really just pleased one person by answering his question but pissed off the rest of the audience :)
As for the content of the talk, not bad but really just too end-user focussed, I would have loved to see a practical usecase of a barebones CMF project or perhaps the implementation behind the demo app.
Nice guide explaining the basic principles of ZF2
Great and inspiring keynote.
