Volunteers make Vancouver PHP Conference work
More than 225 developers attended the second Vancouver PHP Conference at the University of British Columbia's Downtown Campus in Vancouver Canada this week. Organized by the Vancouver PHP Users Group, the conference attracted many of the best-known names in the PHP world, including Rasmus Lerdorf, Andrei Zmievski, Damien Seguy, and Zak Greant. The result was a well-rounded conference that shows what an experienced group of volunteer organizers can accomplish.
Many of the out-of-town speakers arrived over the weekend and began the conference with a ski trip to Whistler and a dinner in the trendy Yaletown district on Sunday. However, the conference did not officially kick off until Monday morning. Despite the discovery that name tags had not been printed alphabetically -- making for "real random access," as one volunteer commented -- registration was largely complete by 9 a.m., when the first presentation started.
