Hoareau Olivier ( PHPPRO) & Damien Seguy (Alter Way Consulting) presented "Yes ! PHP is industrial !"

...

These 2 days were very interactive with a nice part for MySQL. In particular the usage of frameworks like Zend Framework or symfony in conjunction with MySQL was positioned to produce more industrial and maintainable PHP+MySQL code. Long live the LAMP stack !
