NYCPHP Meetup

[Mark Withington]

Those interested can hear core devs: Mitch Pirtle, Louis Landry, Andy Miller
and even Johan Janssens in Belgium (courtesy of Skype and strong coffee)
walked through the latest Joomla! 1.5 news at http://www.bostonphp.org/ when
they visited us during LinuxWorld.  You can either subscribe to the podcast
or listen directly:
