Open Source Developers’ Conference 2008 - Sydney - Call for Papers
Original post provide by PHP: Hypertext PreprocessorThe Open Source Developers’ Conference 2008 is a conference run by open source developers, for developers and business people. It covers numerous programming languages across a range of operating systems, and related topics such as business processes, licensing, and strategy. Talks vary from introductory pieces through to the deeply technical. It is a great opportunity to meet, share, and learn with like-minded individuals. This year, the conference will be held in Sydney, Australia during the first week of December. If you are an Open Source maintainer, developer or user, the organising committee would encourage you to submit a talk proposal on open source tools, solutions, languages or technologies you are working with. For more details, see: http://osdc.com.au/2008/papers/cfp.html. If you have any questions or require assistance with your submission, please don’t hesitate to ask! We continue to recognise the increasing importance of Open Source in providing a medium for collaboration between individuals, researchers, business and government. In recognition of this and ensure a high standard of presentations, we intend to peer-review all submitted papers.

Step 4. Clientele. List the biggest names that purchase or have purchased from you. If you’re just starting out, you may choose to omit this section for lack of a substantial number of clients. You can always go back later and add this list as you grow.
Web Site Gray Text Trend
Most of us scan rather than read Web pages. Gray text is a barrier for scanning because it requires working harder to make out the text as it doesn’t have a strong contrast to the background. It’s okay to use some gray text, but not for most of the page’s contents.
Fonts & Encodings
You’ll learn about the data that accompanies each Unicode character and how Unicode deals with normalization, the bidirectional algorithm, and the handling of East Asian characters. Part II discusses font management, including installation, tools for activation/deactivation, and font choices for three different systems: Windows, Mac OS, and the X Window System (Unix).

PHP Serialize - PHP::Serialization
Der Data::Dumper von Perl jedenfalls gibt für das deserialisierte Objekt folgendes zurück: $VAR1 = bless( { 'public_key' => 'public_val', 'testprivate_key' => 'private_val' }, 'PHP::Serialization::Object::test' ); Die Ausgabe von ... print Dumper($obj->{'testprivate_key'}); ... liefert jedoch ein "undef" - was ist da los?
