[Yr7-10it] VITTA PD 2008 - PHP & MySQL - Registrations now open

[Geoff Hutchison]

So what would it cost to set up and stream? And if we pay for the PD, but watch it locally? I bet they would get their money back. Streaming doesn't necessarily mean we don't pay. What if they video-ed it and sent us a copy?

If we regionals can't get to most of the stuff, then we should be getting cut-price membership. And no, weekend stuff is not the answer.

Time this was sorted!

Hey there Geoff,
Unless VITTA can run a session and either break even or make money, I get the impression it wont happen...as in our regional cases. (happened twice to me in 2007, and they were important professionally for me at the time)
I am really upset particularly at the PHP/MySQL sessions...as if I can get from Horsham to Melbourne by 4.00 each Tuesday for 5 weeks..not likely!  So even though I would love to learn that stuff, I just have to miss out or learn it online by myself (again!) or via books(boring!).

Looks like the Bendigo PD is the only one I can get to.  Now you know why I am doing the 'installfest' and hopefully, the mini-conf at Melb.Uni on Monday. These are proof that I WANT TO, and will do, when I can have time available!!

Perhaps if more PD sessions can be scheduled for weekends so more of us could perhaps make it(apologies to those with families and young kids at sports).

This is a good example of stuff not being available to regional areas. What about a streaming feed being available?
