Call for papers closed

The call for papers closed this morning. Many thanks to all the speakers who submitted a whopping total of 267 papers. A new record! As per tradition, we’ve made a little breakdown of the number of papers submitted per country:

US: 62
UK: 52
Netherlands: 49
Germany: 35
Belgium: 26
Ireland: 10
Italy: 10
Canada: 7
Brazil: 6
Australia: 4
Austria: 2
France: 1
Israel: 1
Spain: 1
Ukraine: 1

So what’s next? We’re going to read every single one of them and try to create the best schedule ever! However, it is a huge task, so we will need about two weeks.  On February 15th we will publish the schedule on the website (at that point it might still contain some blanks) and ticket sales will start. Everybody who submitted a paper will be contacted before that date with information about whether or not their proposals got accepted.

“I missed it! Can I still submit?”
Unfortunately we won’t accept proposals anymore, but if the subject relates to mobile web development you can still submit to the Dutch Mobile Conference, as it’s cfp has been extended by two weeks!

Only a couple of days left to submit your papers!

Since we opened the Call for Papers we have already received more than 150 submissions, which is absolutely amazing! Thanks to all the speakers who submitted so eagerly!

We seem to have received papers on pretty much every subject imaginable. Topics like deployment, the cloud and PHP 5.4 seem to be very well covered. We’re very happy to receive such submissions, as we expect a lot of people to be really looking forward to learning more about these subjects.  For some reason, submissions on front-end related matters and noSQL-databases seem to be a bit scarce compared to previous years. Maybe developers finally gave up on doing front-end stuff? Was the noSQL revolution we thought to see nothing more than hype? Or are we drawing conclusions too quickly and you simply haven’t  submitted your papers yet?

In any case: we’ll be accepting submissions until Tuesday January 31st, which is next week. If you haven’t submitted anything yet please don’t hesitate to submit your talks using our Call for Papers form now!

Introducing DPC & DMC 2012

We're back! And we are glad to announce that we’ll be organising another edition of the Dutch PHP Conference, which will be held in Amsterdam from 7th to 9th June 2012. Thursday 7th will be the tutorial day and June 8th and 9th will be the main conference days. Ticket sales will start on February 15th.

Dutch Mobile Conference
As you might have noticed, the DPC has got a sibling this year! Because web development is moving to mobile at an ever-increasing rate, we decided to host a conference dedicated to mobile web development in parallel to the Dutch PHP Conference. Want to attend both events? Don’t worry, because with your DPC ticket you can visit the tracks at the DMC as well.

For more information, please check out the DMC website at http://www.mobileconference.nl/

Call for papers is open!
Speakers, the call for papers is now open! We’re looking for high-quality, technical sessions from speakers who can cover advanced topics and keep our demanding audience inspired. Tutorials are 3 or 6 hours in length (note that 6 hours is our preference) and the standard conference sessions should be 45 minutes.

As always we’re excited about all kinds of different topics. Typically you could say that as long as it’s somehow related to PHP and you’re really excited about it, we want to hear it! It doesn’t matter who you are, this event is all about technology. DPC has an established reputation as the best place to expand a developer’s skill set and improve existing practice, and that remains our focus this year.

(Note that the DMC will have its own CfP - see http://www.mobileconference.nl/call-for-papers for more information)

The call for papers is open until January 31st. You can send in as many proposals as you like, so start submitting your talks! If you are accepted as a speaker we’ll pay your travel costs, put you up in a hotel and give you a pass to the conference so you can join us during the event.

We’re very excited to see what you can come up with, and we’re looking forward to reading all the different proposals.

Your hosts,
The Ibuildings DPC team
