If anyone is interested, I could put together a follow up presentation
to last Fall's eZ Publish presentation.  In that area, there is two
directions I could take.

In the CMS theme:
    Getting started building websites eZ Publish 3.X
    - Installation & Configuration
    - Templating
    - Creating new Content Classes
    - Access Control

In the framework theme:
    Building web-apps using eZ Components in PHP 5
    - A brief overview of the set of components
    - Focus on some of the major ones:
      - DB
      - Logging
      - Templating
      - Configuration
 (Not necessarily set in stone of course! Just some thoughts.)

I think both would be tutorial-like.

FYI, the eZ Components topic isn't very applicable to current release
(3.8) of eZ Publish, but they will be the foundation for the eZ platform
Application Server to be released in December 2007. That in turn will be
the foundation for the next major versionof the eZ Publish CMS named
Telemark and to be released in December 2008.

Any interest in either one?  Thoughts on things you might like to see
covered?

Here are some urls to check out:
