[TriZPUG] Fwd: World Plone Day 2009

[Chris Calloway]

TriZPUG,

We had a World Plone Day event last year right after Plone Conference.

After the event, I suggested to the planning committee that right  
after conference was maybe not the best time for such an event. They  
solicited when would be a good time. I suggested April. Lo and behold,  
they went for my suggestion.

Now it is almost April, World Plone Day has been set for April 22.

Due to a lot of factors, I'm probably not the best person to organize  
World Plone Day locally this year.

If you would like to do that, below is a message from the global  
organizer pointing to the website for World Plone Day. You'd probably  
also want to join the World Plone Day group on openplans.org and the  
Plone evangelism email list.

BTW, the figures are in for PyCon early bird registration. 625 people  
are already registered. Taking that number and plugging it into trends  
from the last two years, it looks like PyCon will have 1400 attendees  
this year. You may want to book your room now if you haven't already.  
There are two hotels reserved for PyCon this year.
