I’ll be talking about Gearman this Thursday (October 1st, 2009) at the San Francisco PHP and MySQL Meetup groups (these are two separate groups, but sometimes share the topic). A few other folks involved in the Gearman community should also be there to help out, including James Luedke (the PHP extension main author), Eric Lambert (the Java API author), Dormando, and Hachi (Perl version maintainers at SixApart). You can sign up at either the MySQL or PHP meetup groups. We’ll be discussing the basics for those of you who don’t even know what Gearman is, common use cases, new features, advanced topics for folks already using Gearman, and of course Q&A throughout. Hope to see you there!
