Hi All,

Just wanted to know why YII Framework is not listed in the Zend Conference ?

http://www.zendcon.com/

Why there is no representative for YII Framework at http://www.zendcon.com/ Conference ?

As I can see all the popular Frameworks and CMS’s representatives will be delivering the lectures and YII is not Mentioned any where.

I’d like to speak but it’s 40 hours flight and too late to get a visa.

Would be cool to have great speaker in US representing Yii.

People from Clevertech (a company based in NY) have been using the framework as a base tool to develop webapps. Maybe someone from the company will show the power of Yii?

5

I was CleverTech tech lead ;) The company is based in NY but that’s management and sales team. Tech people are in Russia, Ukraine and Moldova (probably more countries nowadays) so they’re in the same situation as myself: long flight, visa preps etc.

As far as I know, Larry Ullman is giving Yii-related talks from time to time at different conferences.

Overall, we don’t have any centralized “management” of speakers but if one want to speak about Yii, he’s very welcome. I can give out my slides, provide tips on how to speak, provide Yii insights etc.

I have some ideas that I thing interesting to promote them, like interviews with some develops.

What do you think about it?
