DjangoCon 2008?

Huh, wait what? Yup, I found this little treat in my inbox this am. Jacob Kaplan Moss posted this teaser today over on Pownce without any details. Dude! You're killing me... we need some details.

Build a custom CMS with Django

I swear I don't work for Carsonified, even though I post reference to them a lot. I guess I am starting to feel like a fan boy. Honestly, I do like to try and follow their company — any company that gives their workers 35 days holiday a year and 4 day work weeks is worth following don't ya think?

Plus they do fun stuff like document building a django app in a week, or publish a 4 minute video detailing one day building the django app. Anyway, it looks like Jeff Croft is giving a workshop on Building a django CMS. And ya know what - the more we keep talking about Django and doing workshops like this the better, even if it does cost a few dollars... I mean pounds :)

"In this full-day workshop, designer and developer Jeff Croft will walk you through creating a custom Django-powered CMS (content management system) from the ground up, starting with creating data models for your content, through Django's view functions, URL configuration, and template language."
