My ears are ringing -- about PHPCon

David Sklar mentioned my little
PHPCon rant and I saw a bunch of traffic coming this way.  Kinda weird. 
But it does provide me with an interesting opportunity... to get feedback from PHP
folks directly --

So I propose some questions that I discussed in my BOF at PHPCon, looking for more
feedback --

1.
How do you feel about Microsoft becoming more present in the PHP community? 
Whether through attending events, or sponsorships, or other?
2.
I know there is some demand for PHP on Windows (just ask Shane
Caraveo) -- what's your take?  What prevents from exploring it?  Anything
that could make it better?  Performance?  Features?  I heard lots of
very interesting ideas around this at PHPCon, what's your take?
3.
I'm a glutton for punishment, I survived Sterling
Hughes and Thies Arntzen ,
so I open up the general floor -- what do you want?  What do you think? 
Tell me and I promise to listen, that is all I can promise, but I think that is a
pretty good start.

I am going to be in Las Vegas for Nov 15-20th at COMDEX, and I think it is also ApacheCon
-- anyone going to be around?  Let me know, stop by our Booth (Visual Studio),
I'm planning to go visit yours too.

Ok enough blabbering.
