Hi contributors,

For the last 6 weeks or so, in an effort to make the PHP internals more
accessible and visible to a wider audience, I've been summarizing the
week's discussions into a ~10-15 minute weekly video, then breaking that
out into written content where it's supported, and threaded content for
other micro-blogging platforms.

*I have two things to discuss:*

1. I'm trying to ensure that contributors are properly
tagged/attributed/[at]mentioned on all these platforms, but I just don't
have a well built-out list of all of your social handles. I've collected
some of these from the internals Discord and through web searches, but it's
not enough. To collect these handles for platforms like LinkedIn, Reddit,
Twitter, Bsky, Threads, Mastodon, etc, would it make more sense for you all
to *reply in this thread with all of your handles*, or should I create a
simple *Google Form* and link *that* instead?

2. To maintain accuracy, I want to include publishing the video link here
to the internals list as part of my publishing workflow each week. I hope
this provides an easy path for anyone who feels I've misunderstood or
misrepresented their messages to correct me, allowing me to include a
'corrections and errata' segment in the videos. If we find that we're
having to do multiple corections each week, then I'll probably post the
first draft to the list and allow comments and corrections during an ~8hr
window *before* filming.

---

The data cutoff is weekly at 10pm Vancouver time (UTC-7) each Tuesday
evening. First draft of the script is usually ready by 11:30 PM, and
filming generally starts at 9:30am the subsequent Wednesday morning.
Publishing is usually finished around ~5pm that same Wednesday. I'm working
hard to speed this up, but it's an iterative process.

I'm going to include the link to last week's video here so that we can
address any necessary corrections, and I'll also a list of the platforms
where I posted it. If anyone has ideas for other platforms where this
visibility work might be appreciated, I'd love to know them. I've also been
submitting to laravel-news, and the phpweekly newsletter.

Thanks everyone for your help and support (especially on Discord), and I'm
eager to keep this thing going.

Cheers,
Len
