Zend has announced an
open challenge to all PHP pros, develop something great using PHP 5 and you will be handsomely rewarded. The contest entails development of a PHP application using the new OO features and appropriate use of the latest additions to v5. The application can be made as a team or as an individual, but teams are limited to 5 members only.
It is very obvious that the majority of points will be given on intelligent use of PHP 5's new features and implementing standard design patterns, including the usage of XML. This is very important as the Judges panel includes some very well known veterans from the PHP community.
The contest started on the 31st of May and would go on till September 19. The winners will be announced by the 2nd week of October. The Prizes are very luring, the grand one includes a shining new,
Dell Inspiron 600m laptop and Apple
iPod Minis. Other great prizes are also up for grabs, like Zend Studio, subscriptions from php|architect, etc.
So, why are you wasting your time here, the prizes are just too good to be missed for my blog ...
