I have created a VMware image for the PHP Code Camp that I am teaching in Berlin this week together with Arne Blankerts and Stefan Priebsch.

The idea here is that the attendees all have the same environment to work with and that all software that will be discussed as part of the training is ready-to-use.

Here is an abbreviated list of the software packages that are available in the VMware image:

• Ubuntu Linux 8.04
• PHP 5.2
• Apache 2.2
• MySQL 5.0
• PHPUnit
• phpUnderControl
• PHP_CodeSniffer
• PHPDocumentor
• phing
• phpMyAdmin
• (G)Vim
• (X)Emacs
• Eclipse PDT
• Selenium IDE and Selenium RC

Yes, there are plans to publish this VMware image. No, I cannot give you a timeframe yet.
