NYCPHP Meetup

[Bruce Martin]

Thanks, I'll look into it. Often when I start out with a different  
language I try to stick to writing my own code, so I can get to know  
the language itself. Then after at least one project I find my way to  
using the libs or frameworks. I will look into the Zend Framework  
though, it sounds interesting.
