[bclug] Follow-up from tonight's meeting

[Lee Marzke]

I'm glad I was able to attend my first meeting.   This seems to be a 
very active
interesting group and I enjoyed meeting everyone.

A few items I mentioned last night were.

   - Zope "Z object publishing Environment"  http://www.zope.org/

   - Plone Content Management Framework  http://www.plone.org/

        Yes Zope/Plone is quite a resource hog, but I've got a nice
         community site done with very little programming at http://n99.com/

   - Asterisk IP PBX system, http://asterisk.org   I've signed up to give
     a talk in March at the Philly PLUG meeting on Asterisk and *@home

   - Perforce SCM, http://www.perforce.com  ( I'm an independent
      consultant for them. )    Similar to IBM Clearcase, but works on every
      OS, reasonable cost, and has extremely good branch/merge support.

   - I use http://www.zoneedit.com/  for managing many DNS zones, but
     they also have free Dynamic DNS service, and it works with ddclient.
