I was looking forward for this feature for last 3 months! And at last, it is there!

I was really wondered today when I came across really interesting initiative of some women in #phpc IRC channel. They are trying to create some place where PHP women will be able to communicate and feel included in the world of PHP. Ligaya Turmelle (DevZone Roving Reporter) is one of the leaders spearheading the formation of phpwomen.org. She posted an update on their progress her blog recently. She talks about their new website, www.phpwomen.org, their mailing list which can be joined here and their irc channel on freenode.net, #phpwomen. She said:

It is women encouraging women to be active in the greater PHP World. We may be a small group but we have a big impact and are proud of who and what we are. We don’t wish to be exclusive and stand outside the PHP World. And damn it – PHP should be in pink – not purple

So the call has gone out. If you are a female PHP developer head on over to new community site and let your voice be heard. If you know of sister programmers, make sure you point them in the right direction.

Want to say sorry to all my Russian language readers because my Russian Feed has been broken for last week or so after hoster changes. As for now feed works fine and you can read my last post in your native language!

It will be really short post about using set of free tools to implement fully functional flash video streaming server. So, what we are going to get at the end of our setup? We are going to get some type of completely free streaming support that is available with Macromedia’s non-free Flash Communication Server (Flash Media Server) (FCS).
