Sorry the announcement was for April 12th…I meant the 10th…I really did
For the first time ever, we will be sharing space with the Buffalo PHP User Group at the Makerspace!! Should be an exciting exchange of ideas.
* Steve Klabnik will be coming in all the way from Pittsburgh to talk about testing.
* Nick Quaranto will be also talking about testing, and probably trying to cause trouble.
