<h3>User Groups</h3>
|
|
|
|
PHP user groups have started popping up. Christopher
|
|
R. Moewes-Bystrom is running a PHP user group registry at <a

<h3>Mailing Lists</h3>
|
|
<P>
|
|
One of the best resources is the very friendly and helpful mailing
|
|
lists. There are a few PHP-related mailing lists available.
|
|
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li>Announcements of new PHP releases are sent the php-announce
|
|
list. (This is a very low-volume, moderated list.)
|
|
<li>The main list for PHP users is <b>php-general@lists.php.net</b>.
|
|
(This is an unmoderated, high volume list, and is also available
|
|
in a twice-daily digest.)
|
|
<li>The list for discussing database topics is <b>php-db@lists.php.net</b>.
|
|
(This is an unmoderated list and is also available in a twice-daily
|
|
digest.)
|
|
<li>The list for discussing installation issues and problems
|
|
is <b>php-install@lists.php.net</b>.
|
|
(This is an unmoderated list and is also available in a twice-daily
|
|
digest.)
|
|
<li>The list for discussing internationalization (i18n) and localization
|
|
(l10n) issues and features is <b>php-i18n@lists.php.net</b>.
|
|
(This is an unmoderated list and is also available in a twice-daily
|
|
digest.)
|
|
<li>The list for discussion migration from earlier versions of PHP
|
|
is <b>php-migration@lists.php.net</b>.
|
|
(This is an unmoderated list and is also available in a twice-daily
|
|
digest.)
|
|
<li><b>php-pear@lists.php.net</b> is a mailing list for those interested
|
|
in PEAR, an open-source common code library for PHP (some people wanted
|
|
to call it "PHP Foundation Classes" ;-).
|
|
<li>The list for Windows PHP users is <b>php-windows@lists.php.net</b>.
|
|
(This is an unmoderated list and is also available in a twice-daily
|
|
digest.)
|
|
<li>Users interested in early access to PHP releases so that they
|
|
can provide feedback about bugs to the developers before releases
|
|
go out to the world can subscribe to the Beta list. (This is an
|
|
unmoderated, low-volume list.)
|
|
<li>The list for those who want to help out with the development
|
|
of PHP is <b>php-dev@lists.php.net</b>. (This is an unmoderated,
|
|
medium-volume list.)
|
|
<li>The Knowledge Base list receives daily mailings that contain
|
|
summaries of topics discussed on the user list, as well as
|
|
other topics drawn from the Knowledge Base. More
|
|
information about the Knowledge Base can be found at <a
|
|
href="http://www.faqts.com/">http://www.faqts.com/</a>.

<b>Warning:</b> The PHP users mailing list gets close to 2500 messages
|
|
per month currently. Do the math. That translates to about 80 messages
|
|
per day. If your mailbox can't handle this sort of traffic you might
|
|
want to consider subscribing to the digest list instead (two messages
|
|
per day). You can also read the mailing list on the above web interface,
|
|
or if you like reading things with a news reader, you can read it at
|
|
<a href="news://news.netimages.com/php3.general">news.netimages.com</a>.
|
|
|
|
<P>
|
|
You can search the mailing lists right from this website from <A
|
|
HREF="/search.php">the search page</A> or by using the search button
|
|
on the top-right of every page.
|
|
|
|
<h3>Newsgroups</h3>
|
|
<p>
|
|
The mailing lists hosted at lists.php.net are also gatewayed to
|
|
newsgroups on the server at <a href="news://news.php.net/">news.php.net</a>.
|
|
<p>
|
|
You can both read and post to the mailing lists through the news
|
|
interface.
|
|
|
|
<h3>Local Mailing Lists</h3>
|
|
<p>
|
|
There are also some mailing lists that have been set up by others in
|
|
the community to host local discussions (particularly non-English

|
|
great places to find many example scripts and useful functions, organized for

<h3>Knowledge Base</h3>
|
|
<P>
|

The knowledge base is a growing collection of PHP related information in
|
|
a searchable question and answer format. Anyone can contribute, and
|
|
everyone is encouraged to do so. You can visit the Knowledge Base

<h3>Getting the Latest Development Version</h3>
|
|
<P>
|
|
PHP is developed using CVS, so it's possible to obtain the latest
|
|
development release at any time. Further instructions can be found in
|
|
the web interface to the <a href="http://cvs.php.net">PHP CVS tree</a>.
|
|
</P>
|
|
|
|
<h3>Instant Resource Center</h3>
|
|
<P>
|
|
Otherwise known as IRC or Internet Relay Chat. Here you can usually find
|
|
experienced PHP people sitting around doing nothing on the #php channel
|
|
on <a href="http://openprojects.nu">OpenProjects</a>. There is also a #php
|
|
channel on EFNet, but due to the difficulties many people have getting on and
|
|
staying on that network we are migrating to the OpenProjects network.
