[Repoze-dev] FrOSCon workshop anyone?

2010-06-30 Thread Jan Ulrich Hasecke
Hi all!

The FrOSCon is approaching. The FrOScon is a fairly huge Open Source
Software Conference in St. Augustin near Bonn. It is the biggest
OSS-event in west germany. See http://www.froscon.org/ for more information.

It oocurs on August 21st/22nd, 2010 which is a weekend.

The German Zope User Group DZUG e.V. is presenting Zope and friends at a
booth – and we might have a Developer Room, which mean that we can make
our own program for two days.

In the last years we had Plone and Grok workshops which were a great
success. This year I would like to offer a BFG-workshop for beginners.

Is anyone interested to guide such a workshop?

Cheers!

Hi Juh,

as discussed I'm happy to be on board with this but as I don't get back  
 from the Oil Slick Sprint until the Friday morning I won't be able to do  
a whole weekend. Your idea of getting people to work through the tutorials  
with someone on hand for questions is a good one and, depending on how  
people get on, extending the wiki by adding search functionality.

Are you in touch with the organisers? Do you if they could fit a talk on  
BFG in?

Charlie

[Repoze-dev] BFG book available on international Amazon sites...

2010-06-30 Thread Chris McDonough
Previously, the BFG book (http://bfg.repoze.org/book) was avaialble for
sale only via Amazon's US site.  It is available now on a number of
international Amazon sites, albeit not from very many of them in a
timely manner:

Amazon.de:
http://www.amazon.de/Repoze-Bfg-Web-Application-Framework/dp/0615345379/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8s=books-intl-deqid=1277957024sr=8-1
(next day delivery, alright Germans!)

Amazon.fr:
http://www.amazon.de/Repoze-Bfg-Web-Application-Framework/dp/0615345379/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8s=books-intl-deqid=1277957024sr=8-1
(ships in 1-2 months?  come on france!  you can do better than that!)

Amazon.co.uk:
http://www.amazon.co.uk/Repoze-Bfg-Web-Application-Framework/dp/0615345379/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8s=booksqid=1277957259sr=8-1
(1-3 weeks.. you're barely better than france, england!)

Amazon.ca:
http://www.amazon.ca/Repoze-Bfg-Web-Application-Framework/dp/0615345379/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8s=booksqid=1277957454sr=8-1
(10-14 days.. bah)

It's also available from a number of other places.  See
http://www.bookfinder.com/search/?isbn=0615345379title=author=lang=ensubmit=Begin+searchmode=textbookst=srac=qr

In any case, I *think* if a person buys it from a particular localized
Amazon site, they actually ship the local warehouse N copies of the
book, so that the shipping times aren't quite so bad.  So buy one to
seed the paper torrent wouldja? ;-)

How about cutting a new version with all the corrections? ;-)
