Need small team: PHP5->Socket Server

Good evening fellow nerds! =}~

Code: Select all

 
//# This is important.
$myName = 'Jerome';
 
I'm looking for 2 more people to help finish a very large, ambitious even possibly profitable project.

There is NO HTML work being done. This is all PURE CODE. Thank you, but I am not looking for Website Designers.

You do not need a certification, but if you have looked into the ZCE that would be cool :)

Information and Requirements:

Experienced coders understanding the fundamentals of building a socket server, the differences between TCP and UDP connections and how to implement them and build on top of them, will be needed.

Applicants must have knowledge or can easily read the manual and use SimpleXML functions for some tasks.

Applicants must have working knowledge of PHP Object Oriented Programming (OOP) (using classes and interfaces).

Applicants with a background in ActionScript 2 and/or 3 are strongly encouraged to apply. It is not necessary to be a Flash artist because there is very little artwork involved, but you should know how to interact with Flash components and be loosely familiar with Class files.

*The entire project does not really involve Flash at all. But for a demonstration of its use to the public, I thought Flash would be the best way to start it out.

MySQL is also very important to know. I won't go much into that here because pretty much anyone who uses PHP uses MySQL :P

We all (well most of us) have regular jobs, but I'm really looking for applicants who have some free time (not scheduled) that they can dedicate to the project.

It is an unpaid position to start, but there is quite possibly some money out there for us. Nothing to quit your day job over, but, it might make Christmas fun :)

If you are interested, please contact me via email with some information about yourself and what you believe you can contribute to the project:

Nice spam prevention. ;)

This would be a command-line application? What will it be used for?

Thanks :)

Yes, it will be CLI right now. I've looked into GTK but believe that GTK would bloat PHP's small footprint :)

The server will be the foundation for building 'extension applicaitons' (Like an FTP server or a Mail Server etc).

The server and infrastructure/framework have already been developed and I'm now developing the first extension [Which is not listed above...].
