To help foster these types of developments and programs, New York PHP has formed two special interest groups (SIGs), with more to come. New York Front End: NYFE is dedicated to the coding and development with key front end technologies, such as CSS, JavaScript, Flash and HTML. Headed up by NYPHP Directory Dan Krook, a page is in development and a mailing list already available for public use. See http://lists.nyphp.org/mailman/listinfo/front-end for discussion, technical support, and SIG developments. Education: As we move into the fall and people are back to school, New York PHP wants to support AMP Technology in area schools, and promote special workshops and events for the education community. With dozens of interested members already volunteered, we're now looking for a SIG Director to lead this effort. Please contact contact at nyphp.org if you'd like to take part in this vital initiative. Thank you, New York PHP
