World Plone Day 2010 Indianapolis

The Plone open source software community will hold the 3rd annual World Plone Day (WPD) on April 28, 2010. WPD is a day of events held around the globe to spread awareness of Plone, a free and open source Internet publishing system that combines web content management, social software, collaboration and enterprise portal features.

Six Feet Up will sponsor and present the Indianapolis World Plone Day event in the Learning Lab of the Indiana Historical Society, 450 West Ohio St, Indianapolis, IN. The company will offer a free presentation and live demo of the Plone CMS from 1-3pm. Register, and get a chance to win a $50 iTunes gift certificate, by sending an email to info@sixfeetup.com (you must attend the event to be eligible).

This "follow the sun" event is a global initiative by user groups, developers, and plone.org. Previous WPDs have featured over a hundred local events around the Globe.

This year boasts more seminars, training sessions, and meet-up groups to help improve global awareness of Plone. Since Plone is an open source project, it relies on its community. Enthusiasts are encouraged to show up in full force to ensure Plone continues to grow.

The date for World Plone Day 2010 was decided based on a survey which included an evaluation of the previous events. Plone community members from the Americas, Asia, Oceania and Europe provided feedback on the WPD organization process, made suggestions and identified challenges for future editions.

Six Feet Up is an official sponsor of WPD2010. Make sure to order your World Plone Day t-shirt in time for the event.
