The php[tek] conference has officially announce the opening of their Call for Speakers for the 2016 edition of their conference, happening May 23rd through 27th in St. Louis, Missouri.

PHP runs over 82% of the internet at the moment. Take a moment to think about that staggering statistic. Because of this, the use-cases of PHP are extremely broad, and we want php[tek] to reflect that. We therefore want submissions that cover the entire range of Web Development processes. We want to hear about how PHP is getting the job done throughout the world.

Importantly, we don’t necessarily look for talks that are only about PHP itself. Some of our most successful presentations have been on products built on PHP (such as WordPress, Drupal, and other frameworks) and on technologies that are crucial to building on the web (HTML5, JavaScript, Mobile Development, Apache, Databases, Deployment, etc.)

This Call for Speakers will end January 16th just before midnight UTC so get out there and submit those topic ideas soon! If you're interested in the package provided to speakers see this page on the CfP site or the general conference site for more information on the conference itself.
