p. !>http://www.phpwomen.org/wordpress/wp-content/themes/phpw/images/phpwomen-1-keyline.gif!:http://phpwomen.org Regular listeners of our podcast, PHP Abstract, know that we like to push the envelope and “do something different”. So we are going to do something different now, we are going to attempt our first “live” podcast. (Live in the sense that all of will be alive when we actually record it)
p. “PHPWomen.org recently celebrated it’s first birthday”:http://www.phpwomen.org/wordpress/2007/10/25/phpwomen-quietly-passes-its-1-year-birthday/. To honor the occasion, four of it’s prominent members, Ligaya Turmelle, Elizabeth Naramore, Elizabeth Smith and Sara Golemon have agreed to sit down with me on the phone and talk about PHPWomen.org, it’s goals, how well they feel they are achieving them, and why the #phpwomen chat room has nice wallpaper and a couch in it.
p. 
p. Contrary to what people believe when they see the name, “phpwomen.org”:http://www.phpwomen.org is not an exclusionary organization and neither is this podcast. Regardless of gender, all PHP developers are invited call in and listen live.
p. 
To make thing more fun, we will all be hanging out in the irc.freenode.org channel #phpwomen. Join us there while we are podcasting and you can ask questions in the chat room. If the guests would like, they can interrupt my highly scripted banter and answer them. To keep things interesting, if you ask a good question and they answer it on the podcast, I’ll send you one of the new elePHPants!

Are you going to use a five-second delay in case crazy people call?

@Fred,
No, we are counting on the craziness to help draw people in.

Keep an eye on the PHP Abstract feed, it will be released in it. If you don’t subscribe to the feed, watch the DevZone homepage, I’ll announce it when it’s released.

Its so awesome that phpwomen.org’s over one year old. Wow time flies,
Thnx e-*hugs* Cal for setting this up &a personal ty for recording &releasing it. I’m subscribed, have been since ep. 3.; listening since ep. 1 [I had some problems finding php_abstract's rss feed].
