[Phpug] [Event] - PHP POTD Jan 24th Dublin - Sponsered By Zend

[AJ McKee]

Gawd I have not heard of Scruffy Murphys in ages... many a night after work
spent there :) 

Really, it's a f2f but just in case someone wants to bring their laptop (I
know I will) their going to be safe with it there. Its more of a very good
excuse for use to meet up, Zend buy us a few rounds and we get to speak with
them and more importantly with each other and decide what we are going to
do, catch up, and talk about as many thinks as we want, too early for formal
yet, imho, we need to meet each other yet!

Did I mention FREE BEER? :)

p.s. As much as I love scruffys, a pub where can all chat without being
blown away by the sound system would be handy.

	I'm slightly confused about the concept of a 'laptop friendly' pub 
being mixed with a PotD. Generally it's best to keep some considerable 
distance between laptops (or indeed any complex and expensive electronic 
equipment) and beer.

	Do you have some idea of what people want to do / discuss? Do you
want 
to run a presentation or some talks first - or will it be just an 
informal chat with topics ranging from the weather to global warming, 
PHP's interaction with Apache2 to the political implications of Posh 
Spice getting (or not getting) another dose of plastic surgery, the 
'hoppiness' of the latest pint of $tipple to security and scalability 
for Zend based projects and everything in between?

	If you want laptops and presentations, somewhere like the ICS or
some 
office meeting room might be appropriate. For general chatting, 
keysignings and CACert and Thawte Notary cross verifications, pretty 
much any decentish pub might be appropriate. Scruffy Murphy's and The 
Schoolhouse are near the ICS (and my offices, if it comes to it) but 
I've no doubt there are more central pubs that are equally appropriate - 
I just don't know them I'm afraid. Clearly I should go out drinking more 
often ;-)

	Hope this helps.

	Best regards,
	-->Gar
