So. I’ve been Ploning for about 18 months now. I’m strictly an “integrator” type. As an integrator/customizer, hardcore Plone developers probably won’t find this blog of much interest, except perhaps how we integrators work with Plone. We are, in fact, just another segment of the Plone user population.

Oh, and I write documentation. I actually enjoy that kind of writing. Very straight forward, very logical, very organized

Speaking of documentation, I’ll be attending my first sprint ever, five days at the Googleplex, writing documentation for Plone with a focus on new Plone 3.0 features and cleaning up the how-tos written for integrators/customizers (go figure!) I’ll be meeting a lot of Plonistas from #plone that I haven’t met before and meeting up folks I met at the Plone Conference in Seattle last fall – I’m looking forward to it!

In other news of the day — I have resisted any kind of suggestion (or coercion to become more of a developer type quite successfully for the past 18 months. I’m an ex-programmer. Or I was. Now I’m the new maintainer of CMFSin (“Syndication In”). Plinkit relies heavily on incoming RSS feeds to create “automatically updated” content throughout a Plinkit site. And I actually plan on expanding its use to create “Subject Guides” via RSS feeds of del.icio.us bookmarks contributed by Oregon librarians.

So now I guess I’m dipping my toe in and testing the waters. We’ll see how it goes!
