That is good timing... we were just discussing exactly that, here in
Sorrento about 5 minutes ago. We even discussed examples of particularly
'exciting' Plone technologies, such as Diazo... which even then would
probabaly not be exciting to europython-type conferences ('XSLT? what's
new?... that has existed for a decade already'). However if you were to
show the power of it to a business conference, or a general web
developer/designer conference, then it would be exciting as it puts this
technology within the reach of these mere mortals.
You are right. With the new German Plone brochure – did you get some in
Sorrento? – we cover exactly the target group business and simply
mortals interested in content management –
But! We constantly need to attract new developers as well. And not only
new developers but new young developers with cool ideas, full of
enthusiasm and the spirit to try out new things.
If we don't get them, maturity will be the last state before decay.

Re: [Evangelism] Re: Linux New Media
Am 15.12.2008 um 20:04 schrieb Roberto Allende: Anyway, there are many things to improve and you're very welcome to share ideas and/or work on them. Oh I was just complaining that a not so unimportant open source site moves away from Zope to a php-based system. We have a pretty good visibility in Germany concerning fairs. We are at the CeBIT, the LinuxTag and the Systems with an own booth promoting Zope and Plone covering the most important fairs so far. Though I must admit that all this is shouldered by quite a few people. And thats the real problem. We're missing people who just write about Plone and Plone products in magazines or blog about it. I am sure that next years WPD will be a bigger success than the first this year. Concerning the Heise-event I mentioned we have a problem due to the concept of this event. Its a business-event labelled open source, that means that smaller and bigger companies spend a lot of money to be sponsors of this event and have the opportunity to present their things to the audience not only in the conference programme. Last year we had a talk at Open Source Meets Business but this year there won't be no Zope/Plone talk. Having a talk there is not enough, it is better to have a booth, but a booth is only for sponsors. What do you think about listing strategic events, where we have no visibility at all in the last years and see, if we can improve it? For Germany I would propose: Open Source Meets Business: an annual three days conference organized by the Heise Verlag, the most important publishing house for it topics. Conference fee is high, everybody is wearing a business suit. ;-) The topic of a talk should not be technical. A good case study would be suitable. juh -- DZUG e.V.

Re: [Evangelism] Re: Lessons learned from the first World Plone Day
Hi Roberto, Am 08.11.2008 um 06:10 schrieb Roberto Allende: Here are my proposals. 1. True international homepage We need to have a multilingual website called worldploneday.org, so that each national team can translate announcements and infos into their national language and refer to it in their national PR. when we started the wpd i thought it could be a good idea to have a site for wpd, but as the organization moved forward i change my mind. There are good reasons to keep the global communication in plone.org: 1. All the effort of the wpd should be in the local events. Following this argument, if you need a site, you should create one for your country or city, and when you promote the wpd in your country, you should use your site. If you need 'global' elements, you can add a google map and stuff like this we made already. Doing smt like this, every host has the freedom to do what it considers necessary and we don't force to have the same content translated to all the languages. The people who attended the wpd in my country got informed through our user group site, not the global place... so it's more important to invest time on the local version rather the global one, 2. Effort and resources. The wpd 2008 page was very simple, and still it took me too much time. We should need more people to do a global site, hosting and so on. Until we don't have a matre event i wouldn't invest resources on it. 3. Bringing people to plone.org or your local site is good. I like the idea of having the global event page few clicks close to the download plone button, or even the local one (we used plone cono sur page to promote wpd in our region). This is a good way to promote your local job, in our case, to promote our Plone user group. These are good reasons. What I imagined was a site, where local groups can directly add their info, programme etc. That would reduce the amount of work done by you and others, who must keep a central page up-to-date. Posting on plone.org is not easy. Therefore I thought it would be easier to have a wpd-page where more people have access to. Of course we can promote the wpd on any local page like worldploneday.de or zope.de, but this would be an isolated page. If a journalist takes a look at it, he sees a handful of wpd-events in Germany. He won't understand the global impact of the wpd at once. A google map might give him a hint, but I am not sure… If everyone adds his event to a central wpd.org summing up all events, summing up all presentations and talks would be easy. And all the work would be done by local activists. If we all use our own page, information is spread over 20 or more sites around the world. 2. Refining target group We discovered that a great percentage of our participants were people who already heard of Plone before or even uses it already. So it is good to have a mixture of basic talks like »What Is Plone?« or »The Plone Community«, but you definitely need some presentations for an advanced audience, for people who already know Plone and its community. WPD should be an event to meet new people. I would suggest refining the communication instead. In our country most of the attendees were new people. And the 'old' ones cames to meet the new people. How you promote the event locally will impact the people you bring. I must admit that we made too less noise, because the wpd came too late for our planning, so next year we will have a lot more communication, which certainly will be targeted to new people. But there will always be many people who used Plone for a year or used Zope some five years ago, or had already done some evaluation and now wants to see, what is going on behind the doors. I was lucky that we were prepared for these people by chance and wanted to share our experience. we need more help here. Gerry made a great job, but we should have more people assisting him. Yes, all marketing is local. We have several communities in Germany which I would like to conquer. ;-) Considering it was the first edition, i think it was a great event, so it is great you sent feedback because we need it to define the goals for wpd 2009. Absolutely. It was really great! Also the numbers, if you can send us how many people attended in Germany i would thank you a lot! I hope to get the numbers after the weekend.

[Evangelism] Lessons learned from the first World Plone Day
Hi all, the World Plone Day was great fun and a fairly good success given that it was the first WPD ever and that we started very late to promote it. So I think we will have a World Plone Day next year. From the lessons we've learned we should discuss improvements for the next years WPD. Here are my proposals. 1. True international homepage We need to have a multilingual website called worldploneday.org, so that each national team can translate announcements and infos into their national language and refer to it in their national PR. 2. Refining target group We discovered that a great percentage of our participants were people who already heard of Plone before or even uses it already. So it is good to have a mixture of basic talks like »What Is Plone?« or »The Plone Community«, but you definitely need some presentations for an advanced audience, for people who already know Plone and its community. 3. More time to prepare the World Plone Day The DZUG e.V. (German Zope User Group) is planning its annual schedule in late december or early january. In 2008 the WPD-idea came too late for us, so that we could not support our community in an optimal way. For our annual plan for 2009 it is crucial to know whether and when apporximately there will be a WPD in 2009. I would propose to have a WPD not too late in the year, to avoid conflicts with the Plone Conference, but I am fine with a World Plone Day in next years november again. 4. Give-aways! I know their were some, but we've got none. :-( 5. More noise in the media and the web especially all these web 2.0 sites. juh -- DZUG e.V.
