Plone Administration is no Mystery
The LibreOffice project uses currently four instances of Plone. The workshop covers tasks from creating a Plone website via buildout to the daily administration.
Details of the Workshop
The workshop is intended for volunteers who want to help with the administration of the Plone sites that the LibreOffice project already uses (or additional that will be used in the future). It's a beginners workshop.
The project is currently using four Plone instances for different purposes: the extensions-site, the templates-site, ODFAuthors.org, the conference site.
The workshop will start with easy tasks inside the graphical interface like user management, folder management. Then we will build a new Plone site from scratch. Thus the participants of the workshop need a PC with a Linux-Environment and shell access. The attendees will learn how they could start their Plone environment from commandline in different ways. They will play with their buildout and learn how they could add some new features (via add-ons).
If there is some time left, the participants will find out how they could create a new add-on via commandline.
