Zope and Plone are going to be presented at large at the Munich based Trade Show "Systems" at the "Perspektive Open Source" Area in Hall B2 (Booth 110-21). This is the first Time (afaik) that Plone/Zope are at the Systems. I am very happy to announce that DZUG e.V. (for the german zope community) and 2 Companies (gocept and syslab.com) will have about 20 square Meters to present Plone, Zope3 and our friendly caveman Grok from Tuesday, 23rd of October until Friday, 26th of October.

We will have local Community Members from Munich and People from the two above mentioned Companies at the booth. Nicolas Bossut from ZEA Partners will be there also, to give Information about the PloneGov Project. There are some accompanying talks about Plone3 and about Web-Development with Zope3 at the "POS-Bühne". Christian Zagrodnick (gocept) will present a Zope3-based Authoring Systesm developed for the German Newspaper "Die Zeit" the "Perspektive Open Source" Conference, where I will have a short talk to present Plone as one of the leading OSS CMS as well.

Personally I think, that this is another necessary step to spread Zope and Plone further here in Central Europe and I am really excited to be there tomorrow. And it is also great to be with nice people at the booth, which I haven't seen for a while (like Theuni and Zagy from gocept)
