OpenPublish Training at Drupalcon SF

Just wanted to make sure everyone knew about the OpenPublish training session that will take place at Drupalcon SF in April.
(OpenPublish is a packaged distribution of Drupal that has been tailored to the needs of online publishers.)

We'll start with an Introduction to OpenPublish and Thomson Reuters' OpenCalais and move on to an installation of OpenPublish. The class will cover the following items as well, and include plenty of time for questions and instructions.

Putting together your own OpenPublish site :
• Customizing the taxonomy
• Setting up navigation and menu items
• Controlling content on the site with editorial options
• Creating robust content using different tools and features
• Multimedia options and showcasing
• Setup new main level sections
• Customize RSS feeds
• Importing RSS and Twitter

Using advanced features to customize your site:
• Creating your own theme using the OpenPublish base theme
• Using Context to build your site sections
• Block placement using Context
• Configuring OpenCalais and More Like This
• Set up and configuration of Topic Hubs

Finally, we will have a discussion of taking your OpenPublish site further in several different ways, such as: building new features using Features; Advanced theming techniques and contributing to OpenPublish.
