Preparing for Symfony BugHuntDay

Symfony
That’s right, the title says it all: we’re having another BugHuntDay. After the success of the previous one, we (PHPBenelux) decided to host another one. Last time around it was all about Zend Framework. This time we feel that we should dedicate some attention to the Symfony framework.

To be perfectly honest, we were discussing it for a while, but we didn’t reach the planning stage. That was until the kind people at Intracto decided to take the lead. I knew they were pretty fond of Symfony, but now they decided it was time to give back to the community by sponsoring and hosting the event.
PHPBenelux
The event takes place Saturday November 14th at Frame21 in Herentals. More details can be found on the PHPBenelux website. You can still register for this event and we kindly invite you to do so by filling up the following form.

A large portion of the presentation contains information on process control. Some people advised me to make a separate presentation on that topic. I might consider that, but in the mean time this is the result:
