> We wrap-up a great summer with an exciting presentation by New York
> PHP's own Jayesh Sheth. Join us this August at our IBM location to
learn
> how Mozilla, XUL and AMP Technology can deliver fully functioning
> Internet-enabled desktop applications.  This technology has huge
> potential by providing fully integrated client applications, powered
by
> AMP Technology, in distributed environments.
> 
> 
> Creating Rich Applications with Mozilla, XUL, and AMP Technology
> 
> Most PHP developers are used to creating HTML-based web applications
> that look and feel different from traditional desktop programs. But
what
> if there were an easy way to bridge the gap between the look-and-feel
of
> desktop programs and the remote delivery (and remote data storage) of
> AMP powered web applications?
> 
> The combination of the Mozilla browser's XML-based user-interface
> language, XUL, JavaScript on the client side, and Apache/MySQL/PHP on
> the server side, can successfully bridge the gap between desktop and
web
> applications. By providing an immediate and responsive user interface
> that interacts with data stored on a remote server, Mozilla and XUL
can
> deliver the user experience of desktop applications with the power of
> AMP Technology. The key bridge between the rich client (Mozilla) and
the
> remote server (running Apache/MySQL/PHP) is a web services protocol
> called XML-RPC.
> 
> With a series of code examples, including that of an interactive
> fortune-cookie machine, Jay will explain how the client and server
sides
> work, and how communication between them can be facilitated through
the
> use of XML-RPC.
> 
> Join Jay and the New York PHP crew to see how this powerful suite of
> technologies can deliver rich web-based desktop applications. IBM, our
> latest sponsor, has provided a great room with seating for plenty.
> 
> APress, our latest sponsor, has provided a great selection of books
for
> meeting attendees.  Come prepared with a business card to enter the
> raffle.

> Python SIG at New York PHP
> --------------------------
> 
> Recently, some members of the New York open source community have
shown
> interest in having a Python user group in the area.
> 
> Since Python is part of the LAMP stack, we've created a Python SIG at
> New York PHP.
> 
> http://nyphp.org/content/mailinglist/mlist.php
> 
> While not a full user group, it's a start, and can serve as a common
> discussion place for Python developers.
> 
> Those who are interested are encouraged to join and discuss technical
> and community topics.
> 
> Also, anyone is welcome to contact me to get involved in organizing
the
> SIG and events.  New York PHP will help however we can to support
Python
> programmers.
