­Singing & Dancing Sprint @ Plone Conference 2009

 More, more users :D

This sprint will be focused on the chance to integrate the newsletter engine and make it able to handle site users, and not just e-mail addresses.

We at Abstract have experienced that in complex scenarios (like intranet/extranet) administrators need a complete and versatile newsletter system, able to work with both e-mail addresses and registered users. This will be the focus: starting from pros and cons of the current implementation (and some code we have developed and that can eventually be shown), let's study a way to extend S&D and give another exciting feature to the community !

The story so far...

How does it work actually ?

The path to glory

Blueprints

Multiple user sources

1000 years from now...let's dream about it !

Warning: the following topics are not the focus of the sprint, they're just some ideas we would like to discuss with all the interested people !

  • Complete users and groups integration
  • different data sources (LDAP ? DBMS ?)
  • correct visualization into web-clients
  • dynamic template formatting (ajax-based scenarios ?)
