Has the CIAPUG gotten in on any of this action? If not, I can submit the
group for participation.

Aaron Wormus asked me about this the other day, so I thought I'd post some
of these to the list. In the near future (once the DNS gets sorted out for
phpgroups.org), I'll put up a wiki where we can share this information.

You may contact these publishers for review copies of their books:

O'REILLY:
http://ug.oreilly.com/
Contact: Marsee Henon, marsee@oreilly.com

PEARSON/SAMS:
http://www.informit.com/usergroups

WROX:

http://www.wrox.com/go/ugmember
For review copies: ptrequest@wiley.com

I used to have lots more notes on publishers somewhere. I'll try to dig
through my archives and back-ups to see if I can find them. Not sure what
happened to them.

If anyone else has notes or other contacts, feel free to contribute to this
thread.

I don't think anyone's driving this boat... so if you'd like to, I'd say 
go for it. Might be an interesting thing to do for meeting topics - have 
some review a PHP book each meeting.

I'm interested.

 

I'm interested in things like Propel for generating classes of objects from
databases and databases from classes of objects.  I'm also interested in the
new features for PHP 5.3, such as namespaces or whatever they decided to
throw in.  Those are things I might actually start using right away.  I'd
also like to hear about more advanced features that may be coming, such as
whatever they plan to throw into PHP 6.

 

I'm also interested in Frameworks, like Symfony and the Zend Framework.  I'm
using Symfony now, but haven't had time to look at the Zend Framework.

 

I'm also interested in complimentary programming such as JavaScript JQuery
and MySQL programming (when to use stored procedures and when not to use
them, for example).

I would be willing to give a talk on amfphp and more specificslly Zend  
Amf. I have a pretty good understanding of both.

I have given talks on using phpunit and your first 5 patterns for php  
if either are interesting.

I would also like to hear something on ORM such as propel. I believe  
mr Bibbs is the man on this?

Really like idea of a talk on when to use stored procedures vs models  
and controllers.

I know Tony has a good understanding of Propel.  I?m also wondering what other ORM software is available, either open source or commercial (on a cheap budget).

 

I?d be very interested in seeing Zend Amf.

I would be willing to give a talk on amfphp and more specificslly Zend Amf. I have a pretty good understanding of both.





I have given talks on using phpunit and your first 5 patterns for php if either are interesting.  

 

I would also like to hear something on ORM such as propel. I believe mr Bibbs is the man on this? 





Really like idea of a talk on when to use stored procedures vs models and controllers.

I?m interested.

 

I?m interested in things like Propel for generating classes of objects from databases and databases from classes of objects.  I?m also interested in the new features for PHP 5.3, such as namespaces or whatever they decided to throw in.  Those are things I might actually start using right away.  I?d also like to hear about more advanced features that may be coming, such as whatever they plan to throw into PHP 6.

 

I?m also interested in Frameworks, like Symfony and the Zend Framework.  I?m using Symfony now, but haven?t had time to look at the Zend Framework.

 

I?m also interested in complimentary programming such as JavaScript JQuery and MySQL programming (when to use stored procedures and when not to use them, for example).

Submitted the O'Reilly one (see below).  I will let you all know if we get accepted.

Probably might help if we tried to actually meet here once in a while ;-)  Any interest?

As far as ORM goes, Symfony now also supports the Doctrine ORM. I was 
turned off by all the XML configuration and code generation involved 
with using Symfony and Propel. I prefer Doctrine because it is easier to 
get set up and configured. Here is a link to Symfony's comparison of 
Propel and Doctrine. 
http://trac.symfony-project.org/wiki/ComparingPropelAndDoctrine

If you are looking for a lightweight ORM you could use something like 
CoughPHP http://coughphp.com/ or the Zend Framework offers Zend_Db_Table 
which really isn't an ORM but implements the Table Data Gateway pattern 
which is similar to the Active Record pattern that many ORMs use.

I would suggest taking a look at Zend Framework. You may find it lacking 
in the model/ORM area but there are many tutorials on how to use 
Doctrine with Zend Framework to provide a more full featured Model 
layer. I've recently been playing with the Dojo widgets that are a part 
of the Dojo JavaScript framework that are integrated into Zend Framework.

Unrelated to this I thought I would mention that everybody should check 
out stackoverflow.com. If you haven't heard of it yet, it is a 
programming Q&A site started by Jeff Atwood of the codinghorror.com blog 
and Joel Spolsky from the joelonsoftware.com blog. I've had good luck 
with getting answers to questions and also had fun answering other 
questions.

I forgot to mention that I'm not being allowed to upgrade symphony, so I'm
still running an older version.  I installed the newer version on my desktop
computer at work, reconfigured everything to get it working, and then was
told could not do the upgrade on the server.  So, I had to roll everything
on my local machine back to the older version (fortunately, I made backups).
I think I'll be allowed to do the upgrade soon, but I'm not sure.
Nevertheless, I'd love to see some demos of other software.  I'll check out
these web sites to get started.

Thanks!

Follow up to this: Just got back from a SANS class (545: Secure coding 
in PHP). They suggest using the suhosin hardened PHP patch, and using 
the suhosin.multiheader set to Off, which will not allow CR's in any 
http headers or email headers.

See: http://www.hardened-php.net/suhosin/

Many distros have suhosin packages available (Ubuntu and Mandriva do). 
RHEL and CentOS don't, so you get to compile php from source if you want 
to use it.
