Post-Conference FOSS Workshops on Joomla, Ubuntu and FOSS Migration

Freedom and community sharing are values at the heart of free
software/open source. Conference resource speakers, Johan Janssens of
the Joomla Development Team and Vladimir "Kaladan" Petkov of E-Rider
and the InterSpace Media Art Center (Bulgaria) will be holding
parallel workshops on March 12, 2007 from 9:00 am to 5:00 pm. The
workshops are designed to stimulate productive exchange between and
among FOSS users and developers.

1. Joomla Workshop

FOSS developers, web editors, Joomla users and advocates, and anybody
with an interest in getting their organisation's offline content on
online and managing their Web content will benefit from this workshop.
Know about what's next in Joomla development, tell Johan Janssens --
lead developer of Joomla -- your experiences with the famed content
management system, ask that tough Joomla tech question the answer to
which still eludes you, meet other Joomla people. And even if you're
just curious about what Joomla is, this workshop is still open to you.

2. Ubuntu + FOSS Migration

Ubuntu users will be interested to attend this workshop, and exchange
notes and ideas with Vladimir "Kaladan" Petkov who is actively
involved in localisation of Ubuntu in Bulgaria. This year's e-Rider's
Dirk Awardee (http://www.dirkaward.org/), Kaladan has extensive
experience in assisting various types of communities in FOSS
migration. His model for migrating to FOSS has been used successfully
by many Bulgarian NGOs and many e-Rider teams abroad. FOSS advocates,
Linux users and system administrators interested in FOSS migration
issues and strategies will benefit from this workshop.

The post-Conference workshops are free of charge. No free lunch
though, and you have to pre-register via email to secure a seat.

busy po with the live cd but i already dropped by the venue. had lunch na with raeldc and jdam, too bad i missed sketch7 and stac. saw rey na din. i'll be back later, just need to go to the office for a short while.

[ericb]

Hope everything wen't well and the event was successfull... anyone who wants to share what transpired on the event.

[Jdam]

We successfully distributed live cd  kahit na kaunti lang cd yun iba hindi nabigyan. By the way sa lahat ng hindi nabigyan probably will just give you a copy sa next event na darating if ever. Muli sa lahat ng pumunta at hindi naka punta maraming salamat po   

OT: sayang wala ka @eric hinanap ka ng best friend mo

[maverick25]

Everything went fine and thankfully napuno naman yun venue. Johan showed us the soon-to-be released version that already uses MVC (model-view-controller) na ala-CakePHP so it's easier to create components. It even has naming conventions that's similar to most PHP frameworks that's popular nowadays.

With regards to the Joomla Live CD, I'll be revising the initial version and might add some more features. Currently it's for Windows only but a Linux version will soon follow. We'll keep you guys posted on this matter.

[Jdam]

Johan also compare Joomla to Mac OS while Drupal is Unix

FYI for all according to Johan:

You can still use your Joomla 1.0.x Template on Joomla 1.0.5 by just  enabling the Legacy Mode.
(Joomla 1.0.5) administrator=> site =>configuration =>Enable Legacy Mode [on]
