The team here at ONE/Northwest hosted Seattle’s World Plone Day event last night, part of a coordinated worldwide Plone “day of outreach” that reached over 22 countries.

Here in Seattle, we had a capacity crowd of about 40 folks, with a great mix of experienced Plone hands, Plone beginners and the “just curious.”  I gave a short “overview of Plone” talk, based heavily on the great slide deck that Constance Wilde put together for WPD, and my colleague Sam Knox did a short “basic training” for end-users.  We finished up with some Q&A, which was an interesting mix of really specific technical questions and general questions about features and capbilities.

All in all, a great event with a lot of positive energy.  Thanks to the entire global World Plone Day team for their tremendous organizing and cat-herding, as well as to the Seattle Plone community!
