[ANN] Zope at Linuxtag 2000 in Stuttgart
Hello everyone, A couple of days back Martijn Faassen and I had the idea to organize a European Zope conference. Maik Roeder reminded me of the upcoming Linuxtag 2000 in Stuttgart. So I contacted the Linuxtag staff and we will have a booth. Martin Schulze, my main contact, will also try to get a Zope Conference setup for us, which would give us 2 rooms for one day fitting 50 people per room, where we can have talks and discussions. The Linuxtag will be from June 29th (Thursday) to July 2nd (Sunday). It will be in the Exhibition Center (Messegelaende) in Stuttgart, Germany. I know we have little time to organize the conference (26 days). We have one day to fill with speeches and discussions, so please let me know if there are people willing to give some talks or want to have "Special Interest Group" discussions, like E-commerce, XML or Portals in Zope. I would also like to know, who would be able to come, so I can give the Linuxtag staff some feedback. Here are some subjects I thought we could have: The ZDP Portal (Maik Roeder, ....), XML in Zope (I know Martijn F. did a lot of work there. ;-), An Introduction to Zope for newbies (Stephan Richter -- me), ZClasses, Python Products for Zope and so on. I also would like to hear some talks and discussions about Python products that Zope uses, such as PyGres, PIL, mxDateTime and other modules. I would be very glad, if some Python-only people would show some interest too. :-) The speeches and discussion can be held in German and English (preferred, since we expect people from other countries). So, everyone who is interested in preparing a talk or discussion, please send me an E-Mail and I will compile it to a schedule. The rooms will be open for us between 9:00 am - 8:00 pm on Thursday the 29th. Let's make this a successful event!

I'll try very hard to be able to show up at least one day at the LinuxTag; I'm going to try to help out at the Debian booth as well. How about I18N as a topic for one of the discussions ? I guess many European sites and developers struggle with problems of I18N. Another topic I'm very interested in is packaging and distribution of Zope extensions: keywords are Distutils, packages, zexp's, a package/dependency tool like Debian's APT, distribution etc. pp., cf. Simon Michael's recent rant about ZWiki/ZWikiWeb. Looking forward to meet you, Gregor On Fri, Jun 02, 2000 at 01:51:33PM -0700, Stephan Richter wrote:

Do you mean to talk about products or techniques (or both) ?... I set a multilingual site that works quite perfectly, with almost no product at all (just a few external methods to make things easier). I can explain my schema if some of you want to. P.-J. Andrew Kenneth Milton wrote:

Please check http://www.zope.org/Members/Linuxtag. Simon Cole may come and talk about ZWiki. They are not 100% sure yet. Would you be willing to give a talk on I18N? Or one of your developers? I don't know what I am going to talk about, so I can talk a little about packaging. Are the Distutils really necessary. Zope handles that inside. If you update the .py files, it updates all the object's instances respectively.
