[Evangelism] plone demo

[Dylan Jay]

Last weekend was the New Zealand pycon where Joel Burton gave a  
keynote. He also gave a 30min talk on what is Plone. I've been working  
with Plone for 6 years but I was taken aback by just how impressive  
Plone is when you really see all the feature back to back presented to  
you in a well delivered way.

The video's not up yet but it should appear soon [1]

It did make me think however that a demo video based on that talk  
would work great on the plone site as well being able to be played on  
a monitor at trade shows. Something 10min long maybe with audio but  
also text so it could play silent if need be?
