We?re planning an *Enterprise LAMP Summit* for CTOs (Nov. 5-6) and a *Big LAMP Camp* for developers (Nov. 7) and would like ask your help in tapping into the bleeding-edge open source initiatives in your community for *case studies* *for Big LAMP Camp.* In particular, we are interested in: v Innovative uses of emerging open source technologies in the enterprise (large or mid-sized companies) v Reports about large companies that have completed a transition from closed source software to any part of LAMP v Overviews of packages you maintain or contribute to v Cloud and mobile applications using open source technology v How you are leveraging Web 2.0 systems (Facebook, GData, Twitter, e.g.) with OSS to make powerful applications If you know of companies in your region doing these sorts of initiatives, we would welcome an introduction. And if you?re doing this cool stuff yourself, please tell us! *Please share this query with your user group members and colleagues, too. * Case studies need not be presentation-ready to be considered, and we can offer some technical direction to companies or developers who would like to write case studies for consideration. *Background* The *Enterprise LAMP Summit* will focus attention on the emerging *readiness for enterprise use of the LAMP stack *and associated open source Internet-enabled operating systems, internet application servers, database systems and Internet-focused programming languages. We are very pleased to confirm as speakers: v *Lee Congdon*, CIO of Red Hat IS; v *Andi Gutmans*, CEO at PHP leader Zend Technologies ; v *r0ml (Robert Lefkowitz)*, thought leader, ?ber-CTO and VP of Asurion ; v *William Hurley*, Chief Architect of Open Source Strategy at BMC Software . *Big LAMP Camp *is expected to draw top 600 developers from across the U.S. to learn from innovative open source firms that will share their on-the-ground reports in an engaging multi-track event. Speakers will include *Eli White* of Zend Developer Zone and *Jonathan Wage* of Sensio Labs . *Intrigued?* More info @ www.EnterpriseLAMP.org. *Thanks!

This is probably not a humorous matter at all. Many programming jobs can be very handily carried out by physically challenged people. These physical job requirements are probably present in order to inform physically challenged candidates. If I were in that situation, I'd prefer to know the requirements up front, rather than wasting my time (and the employer's) by calling them.
