Your duties will include developing ideas, researching stories, and writing posts about activities the PSF is supporting within the Python community. If you are interested in helping, contact me off-list with an introduction about yourself and a link to writing samples, if you have any. Experience is a plus, but not necessary.

There is an "article" up now on Packt's website now: http://www.packtpub.com/article/examining-themes-omelette-python (it's really a portion of the Appearance chapter). And really, the entire book is about Buildout. Each chapter has a handful of configuration examples having to do with the subject of the chapter. So basically it's a way to get people up to speed with how to edit their buildout.cfg file(s) to accomplish various tasks. And it makes a great stocking stuffer too! ;-) Alex > > Doug -- Alex Clark ? http://aclark.net Author ? Plone 3.3 Site Administration ? http://aclark.net/admin
