Finally, today I got my request, to participate in the International PHP Conference 2008, approved. I am really looking forward to plan my conference among this huge selection of interesting sessions to chose from. The conference plan can be found here.

My choice of sessions will be regularly updated here.

Power workshop:

• Quality Assurance in PHP Projects – In-Depth Best-Practises

• Understanding the PHP object model (slides)
• What PHP IDE to choose? There are so many out there….
• Back from IPC2007 Frankfurt

This is the title of my diploma project and the implemented software component. I need a better and definitely a shorter name (abbreviation would be nice). So if you have any good suggestions please let me know (post a comment).

Maybe your suggestion will be the title of my workflow engine.

Finally, after six months of hard work, I handed in my diploma project today. The project’s report and software component (Light-weight PHP workflow engine for BPEL 2.0) will be uploaded to my webpage under “Projects” after my exam and its possible corrections.

So please feel free to download my work and try it out – all kind of comments are of great interest, so that I can improve the workflow engine.

The workflow engine will get its own webpage as soon as possible. The webpage will be announced here later, so come back now and then…

I have used a lot of different PHP IDE (like Eclipse PDT, Bluefish, Quanta+, Nusphere PhpED etc.) by now, but I’m still not overwhelmed.

I would like to hear from people out there programming PHP, I would appreciate if you could post a comment about your experience with your favorite choice of IDE and why it is your favorite.

I only got 2 exams left, before I get my diploma it ).

There is an oral exam on advanced OOP at the end of this month, where I have to prepare a 7 minutes presentation as the first part of the exam. In the second part I will randomly draw a question, where I have to give a presentation about this topic. The areas covered in this course were:

• Design Patterns in general, critics and benefits
• ORM
• Version handling
• Code refactoring and “bad smells in code”
• Chosen areas of Design by contract
• Software evolution
• Code generation
• principles of the Adaptive Object Model
• New constructs in C# 3.0 (I still prefer PHP, but this course was in C#)

All future exams will be graded by the 7-point grading scale, which Denmark recently adapted to.

After this exam I will move on to my final project. More about this project when my problem statement and goal have been approved by my supervisor.

Yesterday I went home from the International PHP Conference (IPC) in Frankfurt. My main interests for the IPC was the topics testing, software quality and framework.

They were covered by some great sessions from Sebastian Bergmann .
