Hi,

We just wanted to make sure you were aware of our 2011 event, coming up on
Friday 25th February, again at the Business Design Centre in London -
apologies if we're preaching to the converted and you already know about it
and/or have registered! Our earlybird registration price will end at 5pm GMT
today (Friday 7th January), so if you want to come, you can save £20 (ex.
VAT) by registering now instead of nearer to the event. If you plan to pay
using credit card, please select the PayPal payment method (you do not need
to create a Paypal account):

http://www.phpconference.co.uk/registration

If you've already registered yourself, thanks very much, and don't forget to
tell your friends/colleagues. Note that the only way to register is via our
website – we do not accept or offer sales directly by telephone, fax or
  e-mail.

In mid-December we announced most of our speakers and the talks that they
will be presenting, and will be running a poll for registered delegates, as
we did last year, to help determine the actual schedule on the day:

As you are hopefully aware, we are a community-organised event, run by
unpaid volunteers, and so we rely on sponsorship to help fund our
conferences, to make sure we can offer reasonable registration costs back to
our delegates. If you work for an organisation that might be interested in
sponsoring this year, or being a partner, whether it being financially or
supporting us in some other way, please ask the relevant person that you
work with to take a look at our sponsorship brochure, which outlines the
opportunities that are available:

Also, if you'd like to get involved on a more personal level, we are still
looking for volunteers to help us on the day. We would only recommend this
if you already live in London as we are unable to cover your travel or
accomodation costs, but if you do, this is a great way to give something
back to the PHP/open source community, and to avoid having to pay to attend
the event! If you're interested, there's more info and a sign-up form on our
website:

Lastly, we are currently planning our keynote speaker/talk for the event,
and currently have a few options in mind. However, we are always keen to
hear your suggestions, so if you've seen a great speaker/talk at an event
within the last year or so that you think we should consider, or have any
other kind of feedback or enquiry, please let us know - either e-mail us at
conference at phplondon.org or use the form on the site:

We hope to see you all on February 25th!


Jo, Dave, Sam, Franck, Simon and Richard
