[Xerte] Re: Xerte Develper Nonference: Suggested Dates

[Kemp Johnathan]

"learn and share ideas..." "but not necessarily limited to developers as all
input is valuable"

I am quoting this from the Doodle: Xerte Developer's Nonference page as it
may be that content authors who would like to learn how to develop pages may
feel that this Nonference is not appropriate for them.

Would you want to use part of this event to encourage and facilitate
aspiring content authors to become some of the developers of tomorrow?

If you feel this would be an appropriate use of the time then I would be
willing, to provide some input on using Page Wizards to "build your
developer muscles". I have posted something to this effect on the Doodle
link page, but it occurred to me that content authors might not read the
Doodle page if they had already decided the event was perhaps going to be
'over their heads'.

I am not sure how many Xerte developers there are out there at present, but
a few more wouldn't hurt. :-)

I appreciate that you may feel that this idea may be inappropriate for the
event, or alternatively premature until issues of modularisation are
resolved.

Kind regards

Johnathan
