Lovely Zope 3 training in Copenhagen
Lovely Systems and Philipp von Weitershausen are happy to announce the arrangement of a “Lovely Zope 3 Training” on 3 thru 6 Oct 2006 in Copenhagen, Demnark.
Aimed at the Python web developer, this 4-day training will cover every aspect of the Zope 3 application server you need to know for developing your own web apps. Philipp, a Zope 3 developer and author of the book “Web Component Development with Zope 3,” will introduce you to Zope and its Component Architecture. You will learn everything from Zope’s object database, the automatic form machinery, and its templating and skinning system to internationalizing and securing your web application, and much much more.
Lovely Systems is arranging a “Lovely Zope 3 Training” together with Philipp von Weitershausen in Copenhagen in October. Copenhagen is the center of culture, economics and of course Plone in Northern Europe. The training will be held at Symbion, thanks to Headnet who is sponsoring with the location. The training will be a four day marathon in Zope 3 technology, so come well prepared and don’t forget your daily jogging. :)
