Karlsruhe (Germany 8-11 september).- New logo for TYPO3 the most
advanced, complete and flexible open source cms was presented at
the first international conference TYCON3. Diego Semenzato, ceo
of Webformat srl, attended the event and got all the news of
TYCON3.
A LOGO EVOKING "OPEN SOURCE" VISION
The new image of TYPO3 was presented at the first international
conference in Karlsruhe, a new logo identificating the open
source project founded by Kasper Skarhoj. TYPO3 Association
created and developed the new icon although some color details
have still to be defined. The new logo graphic is essential but
at the same time truly communicative, a number of messages are
being. The old logo triple forms and colors have been
substituted by a more direct communication and personal
interpretation. Now next to the letters, written in a different
font, there's a tiny sail, or maybe a heart, a pencil, a dart or
a rocket. Developers, administrators and new users will be free
to give their own personal meaning and significance to the new
icon. The communicative mission of TYPO3 Association follows
what Kasper explained so vividly during his contribute to TYCON3.
INSPIRING PEOPLE TO SHARE: a renovated challenge for the TYPO3
community
In his 80min contribution to the conference, Kasper has focused
the attention to the importance of personal and individual
initiatives for the development of TYPO3. According to Kasper,
the real success of TYPO3 is not the broad and quick diffusion
of the cms. The core impulse to TYPO3 diffusion, the real engine
that speeds up the community project development, is the daily
professional benefits the TYPO3 can bring to the user, developer
or website administrator. On the practical level, the use of
TYPO3 produces a high impact nourishing a professional
experience that brings one to share all the advantages and
benefits of of working with TYPO3. This is where the core
developmental impulse starts from: the individual and personal
use experience of cms TYPO3. And that is also a challenge for
all TYPO3 developers and editors which contributes to TYPO3 open
source community stability, cohesion and richness.
THE HEADLINES OF THE CONFERENCE
During the three-days-conference several projects based on cms
TYPO3 technology starting from the tutorials of Thursday 08th
about news management and Templ?Voil?. After Kasper's
contribution, that "lit up" the developers teams, on Friday more
technical topics were discussed such as DBAL and DAM for TYPO3.
One of the hottest subjects were also TYPO3 and accessibility
websites, the development of workflow management for complex
sites and the advanced extension for the management of e-shops.
All projects presentation and description were meant to be
explicative and suggestive for all the developers of the
community thus giving more space to customised solutions. TYCON3
was also the scene for the presentation of contents development
for typo3.org which will be the main point of reference for the
world community of TYPO3; the final definition of TYPO3
extensions repository has also been discussed with a particular
focussing on the importance of personal initiatives and free
contributions by the developers of TYPO3 world community.
