Our topic is "PHP" and the scheduled speaker is Jack Herrington,

the syntax and the language design. Then I'll cover how to develop
robust web applications using the built-in functions and objects, as
well as libraries freely available through the PEAR network. Time will
be left at the end of the presentation for questions and answers."
