Talk comments
Good talk, lots of useful info, good slides. Speaker was a little nervous and had a slight "umm" problem but still did well. Just needs a little more spark and would be a very good talk.
Really enjoyed the talk. The content, use cases and examples really helped express evolving a code base to a more event driven architecture. Glad to see someone using this in the wild with PHP and giving a talk about their experiences. I also though the Q&A at the end was good such as best patterns when dealing with exceptions.
I've just started implementing an SDK for an internal API and already decided to use Guzzle. Picked up a good few features that will definitely make me switch Zend HTTP Client. Can't wait to play with the service description stuff. Talk was short but still packed with content.
Great closing talk from Rowan, interesting insights into the world of development.
Great food, great beer, great company, and more importantly, Guitar Hero! Loads of fun all round!
A fantastic evening, meeting loads of new people, getting involved with new projects, and first pull requests. Loads of fun!
A great informative talk about something that plagues us all at least once in every project. Fabulous insight into some tools we all know, use and love, and some that we may not have heard of (Charles). Probably could have mentioned about other tools which hook into browsers, Chrome Postman, and Chrome's Network tab's "Copy as cURL", but otherwise was a very interesting insight into seeing how other people handle this tedious task.
I learnt quite a bit on strategies and gotchas which I know will serve me well. To be honest I'm a bit gutted I didn't get more time to code but good to see what we would have produced.
Content is excellent, fascinating stuff. Igor had a tough room with lots of people moving in and out, talking in the halls, etc, but still held it together so bonus points for that. Could use some sprucing up before submitting elsewhere but this will be a really good talk.
