[Zope] Free Beginner Zope class (Washington, DC) Apr 4

[Joel Burton]

I direct a nonprofit technology program in Washington, DC, and we are
training 5 VISTA/Americorps Volunteers for a year-long project. Part of
what they will be doing is desiging database-backed web site for youth-
and family-oriented nonprofits. Of course, we plan to use Zope.

Anyway, I'll be teaching them some basics of Zope on April 4th. Covered
topics will be:

  FTPing to Zope sites
  using the management interface
  creating new DTML docs / Images / external files
  basic Zope security
  basic DTML

It's a beginner class, to be sure, but will be followed by more advanced
instruction later.

The class will probably be full-day, probably 9:30-4:30 w/lunch on your
own.

Like everything our org does, we try to make things open and free where we
can, so if anyone would be interested in coming, please let me know. We
have limited space in our lab (and already have 5 scheduled
students!). I'm offering priority to nonprofit organizations first, but
anyone that's interested should let me know.

If anyone has any teaching materials for Zope, of course, I'd love to know
about it.

(I have a 9-seat computer lab. If anyone can offer anything larger in
Washington, DC, I could probably manage a class up to 15 or 20.)

HTH,
