Reporting with his own coverage in the trenches of Oregon, Cal Evans has posted Day One of his coverage of this year's OSCON, with a PHP slant (of course) on Zend's Developer Zone.

He mentions this year's OSCAMP and its facilitator, Brandon Sanders. Since today and tomorrow are tutorial days, the PHP content was light with only the one tutorial being held by Chris Shiflett covering "Power PHP Testing".

Stay tuned for more from this year's conference and more of Cal's great coverage and commentary.
