Hi All.
It looks like the next meeting will be at 7:00PM at CU where Dan can
reserve a room. We have come up with June 19th for a date (this coming
thursday). If everyone feels this is a good date, then please post a
reply. Dan will supply more information on parking a location.

We will be bringing chicken wings! We will need to know one day in
advance on who can make it so the proper food order can be determined.
Any other beverages are welcomed.


Please send a post if you are available.


Hope to see you there!

I'll plan on attending; but I'm vegetarian, so I'll skip the chicken wings...

Sounds great! I should be able to make it. Thanks for picking this
up for me. I will try to get my ArchGenXML stuff going to show it
off.

Hi Everyone,
so we are going to meet at the MCD Biology Building A250(second
floor) 6-8pm I will bring some drinks(sodas and water and some chips/
munchies. I am attaching a link for a map of the mcdb building.
Basically, the best way to come up is get on Colorado Ave from US 36
and come up to Folsom Field. You will see the Buffalo out in the
courtyard. MCDB building on West side of Buffalo. You can give me a
call on my cell 720-883-4255 if you get lost.

Parking. Yep this a place that makes money off their parking:-( I
suspect if you get here after 5pm there will be some meters spots open
that do not charge. If not you can park in Euclid parking lot or the
parking lot right off Libby across the street. Bring change.

As a side note. If you cannot make the meeting I just want to let you
know that I would like to start a small discussion about possible
bringing some Plone training experts to the area. Joel
Burton(plonebootcamps.com)(who I have talked to and we might be able
to get him out here). Absolutely the best trainer out there in Plone
right now. If you are even remotely interested in any of this type of
training or know anyone that is interested please let me know. This
could be a good opportunity.

please let me know if my directions to not make sense or you need to
call me on Thursday to get in.


thanks



I am attending the python bootcamp in Chappel Hill in early August so
I want to be able to share that with you to keep you up to date on
what is

Ben,

Thanks for bringing wings. There will be, for sure, 2 of us, maybe 3.

See you tomorrow,

Chris

Hey guys!

Thanks to everyone who came. It sounds like we have some really good
ideas for upcoming meetings: focus on building user's interest with a
set of lightning talks.

Anyway, I hope my rambling about using ArgoUML and ArchgenXML was
coherent enough to help out (sorry Rick wasn't able to stick around
for it). I figured out why the generated code had those strange
classes in it. It was actually just as Joe had suggested. If you
look a the attached screen capture you will see that there were a
couple of empty classes floating around (look in the left-hand tree of
classes). Had we deleted those it would have worked "flawlessly" (for
some definition of "flawless"). Also, if you notice the top-level of
the class tree you will see the "untitledModel". We could/should have
changed that to the name of the Plone package we were creating.

I did not get a chance to dig into defining the other properties that
allow you to specify the labels on widgets, vocabularies, default
values, and such. The are specified by using the "Tagged Values" tab
(in the lower right quadrant of the screen-shot). Here are a list of
URLs for digging into that information more:

Creating a Class and Workflow with ArgoUML and ArchGenXML:
http://plone.org/documentation/tutorial/anonymously-adding-custom-content-types-with-argouml-and-archgenxml/creating-a-class-and-workflow-with-argouml
Very short summary with a lot of the basics to help you get a good
understanding (including using a vocabulary for the values in a
selection).

Plone Conference 2006: Sophisticated UML and Archetypes:
http://www.archive.org/details/plone2006-archetypes
Probably a much better tutorial than I provided.

ArchGenXML 2 - Developers Manual:
http://plone.org/documentation/manual/archgenxml2
The comprehensive read to everything that works (I noticed a section
on how to incorporate 3rd party products).


I hope this helps.
