Cal Evans of Zend's DevZone accidentally revealed his php community who's who flash cards (so that he can put faces to names at the conference)--and it looks just like a trading card game.

Luckily for you, Terry Chay was on hand to document them:

You can see more of these on Terry's flickr stream.

The flip side of the cards has each PHP community members bio on the back (I don't think Terry managed to capture that).

It appears that Cal's print run had a glitch, as you can see from this pic:

Looks like Zak has yet another lookalike. At OSCON 2005, there were three Zaks:

So, if you tap Zak, does he multiply? What's his cost in land/manna?

George looks very different from how he looked at the PHP Conference in Amsterdam 2 years ago :-D

They put me very much in mind of the Iraq's Most Wanted cards ... a bunch of seedy looking characters in photos of varying quality.

Looks seedy even from this distance.

If you cut off Zak's arm, does it grow a whole new Zak, like a starfish?

I feel kinda silly now. I was sitting next to him at the PHP Lightning Talks and he seemed really cool, but I had no idea who he was, nor that he worked for EZ Systems, which would have prompted a bunch of questions from me. Probably lucky for Zak.
