My thoughts exactly.  PHP is relevant to Postgres, and it's in our best
interest to make more people think so ;-).  I don't see anything wrong
with occasional PHP-related announcements, if they have any PG connection
at all.  Given that there are a couple of PG talks scheduled at this
conference, that would make it reasonable to mention anyway, wouldn't it?
