NYCPHP Meetup

[pyurt]

Yes I agree. In my many years of experience specifying the design is often
the biggest part of the project. In commercial projects the team can get in
the way of the goal with things like feature creep and simple ignorance. 

I suggest that you do a lot of reading or searching&reading and then ask
specific questions of the group...such efforts will bring you the most
useful results. 

I am curious, what country offers a B.Tech degree?

For real,

Please put some work in on your end before comming and asking for our help.

By the way, your welcome for fixing your phpmailer issues.

I'd be glad to help you out, but as David stated, please present a bit more 
detail
or (even better) a full blown spec.

- Ben
