Amit Singh dropped me a note to let me know about a new community site he's developed to share PHP-related resources from all around the web (similar to DZone) called PHPCamp.net.

PHPcamp aims to provide a platform where everyone can bring interesting links, news and share their knowledge that are helpful to other web developers. It provides publishers with a chance to easily show their articles to others and gain some readers; most importantly it provides readers an easy way to keep an eye on latest things in PHP world, at the same time, giving them a chance to learn new things every day.

The site takes in user-submitted articles/blog posts/etc and they're dropped into the "freshly arrived" list for public consumption. If a link gets enough attention, its listed under the "getting hotter" and "boiling" sections progressively. Check out their blog for more information.

Amit Singh passed on a note about an event happening in September, a gathering of PHPers around Pune, India - PHPCamp.

PHPCamp is a 'ad-hoc gathering' for PHP community. It similar to barcamp, but more focused towards PHP based web application development. This means that anyone can come to PHPCamp and participate.

Right now the details are pretty tentative, but the even is scheduled to happen on September 20th and will last all day. They're still looking for a venue but you can go ahead and add your name to their list of campers if you'd like to attend.
