Well thought out talk but would have preferred a little more depth on things like type hinting.

I already gave this feedback in person to you, but you asked me to post it here. ;)

I would cut back on the time spent on all the different versions of php 5. Just merge all those together in the cool star wars intro you have. We are here to hear about the future!
Great theming btw! :)

Then with the time freed explain why certain new features are actually useful - or not useful at all. :)

Options are GOOD, I notice that you sometimes look afraid of giving a subjective opinion on a topic - but is interesting to hear what you as an experience developer have to say about certain features.

Good talk and overview of the history of PHP.

Mainly a good overview of history & future, nicely presented in a star wars theme.

I agree with user Koen Eelen 100%. I think that at this moment, people who haven't started using PHP 7 already, are mostly looking for as much info on its benefits, so a bit less time spent on previous versions as opposed to features of version 7 would be nice. But overall I enjoyed the talk.

I also totally agree with Koen, you could skip the history of PHP and spent more time on PHP7. Very useful information for developers that aren't known with the new features of PHP7 yet.
