February Meetup - Lightning talks

Details

This meetup will be a bit different to our usual meetups as we will have Lightning Talks (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lightning_talk).
So instead of one speaker getting up and talking for half an hour, we want you, PHP User Group members, to get up and talk for five minutes.

Lightning talks are a format that is short enough that you don't need to do a lot of preparation, you don't even need slides if you can get your point across without. It is the perfect place to briefly talk about a project, an idea or a technology you have been tinkering with.

We want to hear from all of you what you have been playing with recently or what kind of cool stuff you've done this year.

Confirmed speakers

Christopher Tombleson - MVC with Slim
Toro Hill - Untangling the Spaghetti
Lenz Gschwendtner - nTLDs (new Top Level Domains)
Sam Parkin - Man In The Middle Proxies
Matthieu Aubry - Piwik
Hugh Davenport - How to approach a CTF (capture the flag)

Sam (https://www.meetup.com/PHP-Usergroup-Wellington/members/14162404/) will bring along some home-brewed beer from his Schmutzige Wäsche micro brewery (literally dirty laundry) This is a 5%ABV lagered pale ale, brightened up with some extra Cascade hops. For the speakers there will be something a little special extra.

Pizza will be sponsored by iwantmyname (https://iwantmyname.co.nz/).
