NYCPHP Meetup

[Kyle Tuskey]

If any of you have a problem with the creators or contributors to PHP,
then don't use the language.  I know several of them, and I'm sure they
won't mind.  It's like you people are biting the hand that feeds you.
You're ungrateful and shouldn't be using open source if you don't
appreciate it.

If people have a difficult time working for no money. Then they
shouldn't.
