Re: HaPHPy Birthday − The Collaborative Movie Cele brating 20 years of PHP

Hello to everybody,

This is just a new call to all the PHP Users Groups about the HaPHPy
Birthday project, a collaborative movie celebrating 20 years of PHP.
https://github.com/afup/haphpy-birthday

I wrote on this mailing list early July to introduce the project and call
the PUGs for slightly taking part in the project and spread the word
around. I had some answers and some participation yet. As I believe the PHP
community is more than a dozen of a PUGs, I make my call again today (I
think summer vacation was not properly the best time to make such call :p).

Here is the list of the PHP User Groups I contacted so far, either via
Meetup, Twitter or email directly to group or to organisers.
https://gist.github.com/woecifaun/f7d7710a290d9386b23f

If your PUG is on the list and you haven't contributed yet, please contact
me.

Thank you for reading me,

Julien

PS: There should be a last and ultimate call on this mailing list early
September. Hoping you don't find it to spammy. Thanks again.
