Plone @ the Library
Tech Talks
Join us as the technology coordinator for the UNT Libraries' Multimedia Development Lab, William Hicks gives us an overview on Plone at the Library.
This is a fairly high level talk/overview on Plone and is a follow up to
Brandon Fredericks’s Web Frameworks talk. In one hours time Will will cover
some easy-to-moderate-level python concepts, draw some pretty pictures in UML,
talk about Zope 2 and 3, users/security and workflow, the page templating
system, CSS, and JavaScript magic going on underneath the Library Website (All
very rushed of course, don’t expect a dissertation). In addition, Will will cover some of
the UI and development changes in Plone 3.x and the proposed changes coming in
Plone 4. This talk is not about day-to-day content management but the
mechanics of (and maybe philosophy governing) how the system operates.
Bring your own bag lunch. We'll supply dessert.
