Just a quick note to let readers know that in an effort to encourage communication with the community and to help people make new connections, I’ve created two channels on Jaiku.com:
For those of you wondering what this is about, think of Jaiku as a mini-blog that adds the notion of channels where multiple people can post messages, thoughts, ideas, stories, links, etc. in very short form (140 characters).
Jaiku supports RSS feeds and there are a variety of “widgets” and desktop tools for posting and reading Jaiku posts.
On a more personal note, I’ve revived my personal blog and have started a personal Jaiku as well. In both I’ll discuss topics that are less Alfresco-centric and of more general interest to me and potential readers. Please join me there!

Alfresco + Liferay: West Coast Community Meetup
Join us on July 18th, 2007 in Ontario, California for our first CMS and Portal community event. Learn more at: http://alfrescoliferay.osmeet.com
June 25th, 2007
I’m very excited to share with you that we’re up to 78 members of which 54 have registered to attend our humble meetup in Ontario California. I’m really excited about the amount of interest and along with Russ Danner and the folks from Liferay, we’re making every effort to ensure that everyone comes away having learned tons about the practical applications of Alfresco and/or Liferay.
I wish to remind readers that this meetup is open to anyone who’s interested in either Alfresco, Liferay or both. At the end of the day, we’re open to anyone and everyone who wishes to learn and contribute their knowledge to the rest of the members.
Now that we have broken the 50 attendee mark, we’ll be breaking up the discussions into four tracks:
- Content Management Track: Focusing primarily on the Alfresco ECM.
- Portal Track: Focusing primarily on the Liferay Portal.
- CMS + Portal Track: CMS and Portal Integration and related topics.
- Practical Applications Track: Scalability, Case Studies, etc.
These tracks will run in parallel and attendees are welcome to attend as many as they want. We’ll be making an effort to record the discussions, but can’t make any promises yet.
We’re one month away from the event and I’d like to remind readers that there’s still time to RSVP. I also invite you all to suggest ideas for discussions and to let me know if you’d like to be a discussion leader.
