The <a href=\"http://hades.phparch.com/ceres/public/page/index.php/works::schedule::synopses::organizing_your_projects\">synopsis</a> is public, but I wanted to give a little teaser about the presentation, in hopes of drumming up greater attendance. The talk is titled \"Organizing Your PHP Projects\", and the subtitle is \"Project Planning in One Lesson.\"</p>\n<p><!--more--></p>\n<p>Fans of Henry Hazlitt's \"Economics in One Lesson\" will recognize the kind of talk I have in store, although I don't have the time available to expound in detail the way Hazlitt does.  The talk will consist of a one-sentence lesson for you to remember when deciding how to organize your PHP project, whether it's a library, an application, a CMS, or a framework. I'll then explain how to apply the One Lesson in your project, and the various follow-on effects the One Lesson will have on your project organization.</p>\n<p>Also, I can guarantee that I will be the only presenter to provide examples and analogies using such sources as livestock, Jimmy Hoffa, and the Mir space station in a relevant and entertaining fashion. ;-)</p>\n<p>Finally, as part of the research for this talk, I examined 40+ public PHP projects, and found a few distinct organizational patterns that I'll give in some detail. Among other things, you will learn exactly what the difference is between a framework and a CMS, and how they got to be that way. Here's one of the core slides on that part of the talk:</p>\n<p><img src=\"http://paul-m-jones.com/public/images/phpa-slide-16.jpg\"></p>\n<p>See you at php|works!</p>\n<p><strong>UPDATE:</strong> (2006-09-14) The slides from my talk are now available as a <a href=\"http://paul-m-jones.com/organizing-php-projects.pdf\">PDF file</a>.  (I'll create an audio version of the presentation after I get back from the conference.)</p>\n"
