After having accepted the Zend devzone blog to Planet-PHP without checking how often per day they post nor rememering it then I got complaints that it’s polluting the Planet-PHP feed, granted people could filter it out and what not but I thought that to be too much hazzle so I decided to remove it, just subscribe to the devzones feeds: (RSS) (Atom)
My apologizes to everyone! :-/
One thing I must add tho, the devzones blog seems a bit useless, it’s mostly only 2 or 3 line entries pointing to other external entries which are more often than not also on Planet-PHP tho it does have some longer articles, there, had to get this thought of my cheast :-)
Cal, maybe if you put tags on the longer and … more interesting posts so that we can use that tag to subscribe Planet-PHP to that :P

Been a while since I blogged but here I go, I’m now one of the people that handles the blog accept/reject on Planet-PHP and as is Pierre in addition to Toby and Christian S. (if there are more people then excuse me for my ignorance)
One exciting thing has already happened to Planet-PHP since I joined, Christian Stocker added a new way to submit your blog to Planet-PHP instead of the old and somewhat crude way of sending email (they often get lost, forgotten, etc.), behold the new way of life: http://planet-php.org/submit/ a very simple form where you provide essential information so that we can decide if you shall prevail and be amongst the star or fall hard on your head ;-)
We have already gotten 2 submissions via the new form so people seem to be picking up on it but if you’ve emailed us before and haven’t been added then please submit via the new form and you’ll be added for sure (well if your blog is PHP related, just read the FAQ on the site if you are in doubt :P) and also if you know of any good ones then I’d say that you should also submit those since we’re always interested in getting in good material.
So well, submit away! :-) And kudos to Christian to making this even easier for everyone.

Update: Apperently some people lost their sense of humor along the way, so to make it clear, this was meant to be more of a joke post than serious! :-) Just like the bloody last sentence says (in a way).
Who hasn’t gotten a utterly stupid feature request before ? Or even a request that you constantly say no to. This is just bound to happen if you help maintain a open source project (probably even more so in a commerical entity)
Well I have found the perfect answer to such requests with the courtesy of the yum wiki
No. Just no. If you don’t like it, go have a conversation with yourself about it. Alone. At home. In your closet.
I’ve even been pondering about adding this as an answering option in pear/pecl/php bug system, I can just see Jani doing the happy dance if this kind of thing would ever be added. ;-)
A slightly modified version of this quote could even be used on reports like this one: http://bugs.php.net/35625
All jokes aside, I had a good laugh when I read this quote and the bug report :-)

As many have noticed 5.1.0 had some issue when it was released, like for starters it introduced a empty date class by default which effectively killed scripts that used PEAR::Date (I admit, it’s rather silly to give a pear package such generic name) or any other scripts that uses a class called Date, which I imagine are quite a lot since it’s seems rather convenient to pick the shortest name possible and many people look passed the fact that they need to prefix their classes.

So my s9y blog got defected, by a person called FD, who ever that is … Luckly that person(s) didn’t touch my database so I thank him/her/them for that, but on that note, why can’t people just use emails when this kind of things happen?! Why do they always have to show of what they did and replace some stuff ?!?!
