If you follow the IW website you may have seen that the September community meeting in Jo’burg would be about SharePoint 2010 Deployments. That has changed to something far more exciting: Double Demo Day!
Double Demo Day means we get to see two members of the community do a demo of something very interesting.The demos are:
Creating Workflows with SharePoint Designer 2010, InfoPath and Visio
Creating workflows with Visio 2010 and SharePoint Designer 2010 has never been easier. In this session I’ll go through the process of rapidly creating and deploying workflows in a SharePoint 2010 environment.
This will be presented by Ridwan Sassman, who helped us out last month with video taping the session.
Branding SharePoint 2010 with MasterPages, Layouts and CSS
One of the largest limitations of WSS3.0 and MOSS2007 is the ability to brand SharePoint without intricate knowledge of the platform and in some cases breaking a few rules and modifying out of the box system files to get the desired look and feel. Come and see how the theming engine in SharePoint 2010 together with CSS, Master Pages and Layouts can be used to brand your SharePoint site using the amazing new SharePoint Designer 2010.
This will be presented by Brent Samodien. If you have been to a SLAB’s you will know Brent as he helps us with the venue!
October
Looking ahead to October – there is no Jo’burg community meeting. Why? ‘cause we will all be at Tech·Ed Africa 2010! If you haven’t registered then you must do so NOW! Or you could try and win a free entry!
