[Kc] April 23rd: Movable Type and Mason

[Glenn Crocker]

Folks,

I thought you might be interested in this presentation (this Wednesday),
since it's half Mason (Perl HTML template system), half Movable Type
(Content Management System for web logs and the like):

The April 23rd (this Wednesday) meeting topic is Movable Type and Mason.
Joel Johnson and Randall Munden, of kcgeek will be covering the Movable Type
Content Management System, ways to use it, and ways to extend it using
Mason, a Perl-based HTML template system. kcgeek has recently switched over
to Movable Type and Mason, and they'll cover their experiences in making
that transition.

These systems are a lot like the PostNuke system we covered a few months
ago, but have some different wrinkles.  If you're interested in building
dynamic sites quickly and enabling a variety of users (including yourself!)
to contribute content easily, you'll be interested in Movable Type.  If
you're interested in building dynamic Perl sites, Mason is one of the best
ways to go.  This is a presentation with something for everyone!

kcgeek is a regional community for technology communication and research in
the Kasas City metro area. They participate in a variety of projects
including development, industry news & reviews, community-oriented
distributed computing, and kcwireless.net. kcgeek is the premiere
communication hub for Kansas City technophiles of all sorts.

Meetings are from 6:30pm to 8:30pm at Technisource (formerly IntelliMark),
9300 W. 110th St, Suite 460

See you there! Invite a friend who might be interested!
