Preparations

In order to make most of the sprint you should build a development version of Plone4Artists on your laptop before the sprint. There is a buildout that will take care of this.

$ svn co http://plone4artists.org/svn/projects/p4a.buildout/trunk p4a.buildout
$ cd p4a.buildout
$ python2.4 bootstrap.py
$ ./bin/buildout -v

See the Getting Started with Plone4Artists buildout guide for more instructions. If you need any assistance join our mailing list or come to chat on #plone4artists at freenode.net
