Who will present what

by plone.org Administrator last modified January 4, 2006 - 09:46

If you want to present your project, your product or anything else linked to Plone please fill in this Wiki.

To allow everybody to present something please don't make it too long. We propose to limit talks to 15 minutes each, in other words, maximum five slides. This way, we keep time after the talk to meet each other.

Talks can be developer oriented but we also hope to see "end user" and non technical talks.

Lightning Presentation of the Tramline Product by Kit Blake (Infrae)

Tramline was announced at Plone Conference 2005. The product is an upload and download accelerator that plugs into the Apache web server. Designed for medium/high-load sites, its aim is to make downloading and uploading binary files easy and fast, without overloading Zope with large amounts of binary data. Zope remains in complete control over security, page and form rendering, metadata, and everything else. Minimal changes are necessary to enable an applicaction such as Plone work with Tramline.

Tramline is generic code, but is particularly useful for Zope applications. Zope’s object database, the ZODB, has one drawback: it doesn’t scale very well when large binary files are put into it. In addition, many appservers have only limited resources available to handle large upload or download processes. Tramline works around both issues by letting Apache and the filesystem handle both.

Lightning Presentation of CMFEditions Content Versioning for Plone by Francesco Ciriaci (REFLAB)

CMFEditions is a Zope-CMF Product that aims to be the versioning solution for Plone, and achieves this by being as transparent as possible and by minimizing the impact for existing applications and Plone itself. Information, in whatever form: documents, spreadsheets, web pages, or source code, changes over time. Tracking changes of a document over time is what a versioning system does. Versioning a content is basically archiving important document versions, to have control on changes over time.

CMFEditions allows to store and retreive arbitrary versions of the any content object in Plone: Pages/Documents, News, Files, etc. It allows to browse the versions, retrieve a version, rollback, and add a comment to each version. It works well with workflow and security, multilingual contents, events notifications systems and can be easily installed on a live site.
