Posted by: darcilicious on: October 10, 2007
Scott Paley is doing some live blogging of the presentations at the Plone conference over at CMSWire. He’s already posted a fantastic summary of my presentaton, Ten Ways to Engage the Plone Community.
First, thanks Scott, for doing such a great job capturing all the main points and second, thanks to the attendees for a wonderful [...]
Plinkit Presentation in Denver
Posted by: darcilicious on: September 28, 2007
Actually, two Plinkit presentations will be happening in Denver next week!
The first presentation will be for the Denver Plone Users Group — here are the details if you’re a Denverite and want to attend. The more the merrier — I always look forward to meeting more Plonistas!
The second presentation will be at the LITA Forum, [...]
Online User’s Manual(s)!
Posted by: darcilicious on: September 7, 2007
I know I know, I’ve been pretty quiet around here (but not so much on IRC )
Anyhow, I’m going to make this short and (very) sweet (I hope!) After several months of work, overseen by Jeff Pittman (geojeff) and with the assistance of many many folks (see below) I’m very excited to share that [...]
New Look for Documentation at plone.org

It’s with great pleasure that I can announce the launch of the new Documentation landing page!
In addition to the new layout, the single best improvement is that documentation is now organized by topic, as derived from the huge card sprint completed at the DocSprint at Google last month.
Have feedback or suggestions for improvements? Use the [...]
DocSprint Report
Posted by: darcilicious on: July 2, 2007
(Compiled by JoAnna, edited by Darci)
The goal behind holding a documentation sprint was to really dig in and fix up plone.org’s documentation. We have a lot of documents on a lot of topics but it’s a standard complaint that no one can never find anything. After months of reorganizing, talking, and plotting, we decided that [...]
“Card Sort” for Plone Documentation

I have a few unfinished/rough posts about the DocSprint but I just can’t not say this any longer:
The work that has been done on the “card sorting” for all the how-to’s, tutorials, and manuals at http://plone.og/documentation/ is nothing short of spectacular! While everyone here has contributed in one way or another, I think special kudos [...]
Starting the whole migration/upgrade dance

I’m in the preliminary/research stages of upgrading Plinkit and other Plone 2.1.2 (yes, I know!) sites to Plone 2.5.3. The nice thing is that I have two separate machines to play with so my existing production system can remain untouched — when you work for a state government, things like having a separate development and [...]
Plonista at large

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 [...]
