So, I popped into #apache on Freenode IRC today to ask a question. That’s when I noticed the news in their topic that ApacheCon US will take place this year in Atlanta, GA from November 12–16 at the Westin Peachtree. This is good news for me (since I won’t need to get a plane ticket) and Atlanta PHP!

I proceeded to ask Rich Bowen a few questions about the conference and what Atlanta PHP can do to help promote and take part in it. ApacheCon usually has a PHP track (ApacheCon EU does not have a PHP track this year), and Rich said he expects this conference to have the full complement of tracks. It’s my hope that Atlanta PHP can somehow be a part of this.

For now, there are no more details, and the CFP hasn’t been announced, but the dates (Nov 12–16) and location (Westin Peachtree) are “set in stone.”
