iBlog - Ilia Alshanetsky

Took a bit longer then I thought but the slides from my Security Tutorial and the Migrating to PHP 5.2.1 talk are filly up and can be found on the talks page (scroll to the bottom).

I hope the people who attended the talks found them interesting and I'd like to thank all the people who took the time to leave feedback, which relayed to me amazingly fast by the organizers.

A big thanks should go to the organizers as well who have done an amazing job in organizing the conference and the after-conference activities. Having a 5 star hotel for the conference was a very nice perk as well .

I spotted Edin's blog post about PHP 4.4.6 now being linked against MySQL 5.0.36 on Windows and decided to see what is new in that release in comparison to the 5.0.33 I am currently running.

A quick visit to the MySQL's downloads page revealed a distinct absence of said release however. There are however release notes about MySQL 5.0.37, which lists some compelling fixes. Unfortunately, this release is nowhere to be found as well, even though the release notes claim it was released on 27 February 2007.

A simple question comes to mind, WTF?
