If you didn't get a chance to attend this year's International PHP Conference in Gerany this year, you can check out some of the things that happened from the perspective from two of the attendees - Jordi Boggaino and Stefan Koopmanschap.

In Jordi's post to the Liip blog, there's mention of the presentations on knowledge sharing and his talks on web security and javascript events and scopes. He also mentions a popular jQuery session as well as workshop that popped up because of it.

In Stefan's post he mentions talks on topics like REST, PHPUnit for extreme testing, refactoring, code quality and agility and continuous improvement.

If you're going to be attending this year's International PHP Conference you'd do well to check out some of the sessions thePHP.cc will be doing during the event.

There's ten different sessions given by the different members of the trio:

• Your Tests are lying!
