Plone Sprint Overview

Plone Sprint in Bern, February 10-12, 2003 (if you use Opera and press F11, you will get the slide mode)

Vision / Future

  • Plone is a brand
  • You will lose out if you rebrand Plone, there's a lot of big fish in the pond
  • Plone.NET
  • Quality Assurance (documentation and go back one month later to check status)

Vision / Future

  • Plone at EuroPython
  • Talk about Plone, about how you build apps in Plone
  • Building components that we can share (Collective)

Collective Web Presence

  • collective.plone.org
  • Need volunteers to help build infrastructure
  • Software Content Type

The Software Type

  • Much more explicit than Zope Products:
    • Have a good description
    • screenshot
    • i18n readiness indicator
    • expiration date: 3 months (no mail ;)
    • ratings (buehlmann?)
    • TTW install (can webmin hose your HD?)

Documentation Day

  • Apache/Squid/SSL/ZEO
  • create reference install docs (with VHM!)
  • Write the style guide (Limi & possibly Arnia)

Documentation Day

  • A Plone Overview - Business Hook, Elevator Pitch (Niels?)
  • Plone Book (Maik as project leader?)
  • Plone Book is for site developers
  • User docs from UCL

Technical stuff

  • We need groups
  • Should we integrate NUXGroups? Pros/Cons
  • Infrae may be willing to contribute to a Groups implementation not based on CMF.
  • Does exUserFolder and similar play nice with this?

More technical

  • Through the web installation
  • extending MEMBER and SITE configuration
    • portal_memberdata
    • portal_properties

RATIONALE: Its impossible to allow 3rd party products to plug into a Plone install. i.e. CMFWeblog overrides the personalize_form in skinpath. This breaks all sorts of stuff.

CMFTypes

  • Documentation is outdated and needs to be sanitized.
  • create CMFDefault types using CMFTypes (Replacements) and migration machinery
  • can we get to a 1.0 "stable" API?
  • CMFSin / syndication (inbound)
  • CMFMember discussion (compatibility/groups - interfere w/ Nuxgroups?)

Products

  • Collaboration (BlueDynamics)
  • Reflow
  • PloneBoard (padawai tesdal)
  • CPS Calendar
  • CMFWebmail (any input?)

Other Goals

  • 1.1 release
  • Roadmap up to 2.0 (6 months?)
  • Plone Network
