Maybe your right. But I can't see how useful such a conference can be if it
limits themselves in this manner.
In any case, it won't hurt to make a proposal. Any postgres proposal is
reasonable. Remember, people will listen because they want to use a database
engine as their backend.
For the record, I have submitted three proposals and only one peripherarily
talks of php (I've asked that only one be selected):
- An Introduction to PostgreSQL, A Party Monster's Guide
- An Introduction to PostgreSQL Replication using SLONY in a web environment
- How to make detailed interactive web forms without the need for complicated
or proprietary solutions using your XML enabled PostgreSQL engine
I see no problems if we make similar proposals. The php conference committee
will just come back to us and ask that we select the most qualified
candidate.
