PHPNW12
5 - 7 Oct 2012 at Mecure Manchester Piccadilly

Great talk with lots of great examples of personal experience about how to correctly handle displaying your content on a huge variety of devices. It seems we need to re-think some of our implementation of "Responsive" design.

My only criticism would be the pictures of David Cameron. For me at least I didn't enjoy getting my dander up every time his face appeared...

First off, sorry for my phone going off mid talk!

Other than that, a great introduction to how and why you should log in detail that I definitely want to apply to our codebases.

Great talk covering something I've wanted to know more about for a while - a lot easier to follow than Amazon's documentation for achieving the same. I now know enough to get started with Elastic Beanstalk.

My only negative feedback would be that although the terminal-as-slides thing was a cool idea, sometimes commands would appear right at the bottom of the screen, which were hard to see if you weren't right in front of the screen.

Very nice and easy to follow presentation.

Great into in how to create an extension for PHP (event though my C skills are pretty much non existant)

Practicals made it lots of fun with tons of help From Patrick, Derick and Anthony for the noobs (me) in the room.

Also provided details on useful ways to interrogate the PHP source to learn more about PHP as well as ways to create extensions.

Wish it could have been a full day tutorial as it felt like there was a lot more to learn

Nice talk. Many details that I was not aware of before.

There was some good content in this talk, but I felt like too much time was spent setting up the "Angry Nerds" characters. I got plenty out of "why" we should code review and a few tidbits on "how" towards the end, but feel like I could have done with some more concrete examples of using software to code review (and what in Sebastian's experience worked best) and "when" they should be done. After each commit? Each day? etc etc.

I got plenty out of this, just not as much as I hoped.

While this was a very useful talk, looking back at the abstract it is clear quite how much was skipped due to time constraints - the content probably needed twice as much time as was available.

I agree with Derick on the point about using a presentation system that keeps all of the text on the screen - although it seemed like the projector was a bit wonky in Track 3 all day.

It would have been good to at least have a mention that 3.8 is going to be 5.4 only (or at least, that's what the placeholder Changlog says on Github).

Overall it was good, but maybe a higher level overview or just less content is needed next time to give the talk room to breath.

A very good talk. That confirms some guessing and revealed new ones.

Good talk.
