About an hour ago, something I've been fighting for almost 2 years happened. The Scalar Type Hinting patch for PHP (the one I wrote almost a year ago) has been adjusted for PHP's trunk tree and committed by Derick. Thanks to Derick for taking the time (when I didn't) to prep the patch for trunk and make this happen ;-)

The slides from my talk at DevConf in Moscow are now up and can be downloaded here. Probably the biggest, or at the very minimum the 2nd biggest audience I've had a PHP Conference and the first time I had to give a PHP talk in Russian (with occasional slippage into English ;-p). Seemed to go pretty well.
