What Plone does • Lets non-technical users efficiently create, edit, and publish web pages, documents, news, calendar events, photos, audio, video, and more • Modules for almost everything else (surveys, polls, blogs, forums, resource scheduling/booking, event registration / signup sheets, online forms - the “paperless” campus) • It’s a web application framework, incl. web services • It’s “free”*
