Screencast Team

Do we have contact to the introduction package team to get this issue sorted out? Let me know, if I should jump in...

Heyla, that is one of the teams I need to restart. Oliver Hader is AFAIK the one that is most concerned with the IP if only because he creates the packages per release.

• personally I would show the installation with the wizard; if it's only a few very quick steps this would definitely be a pro for TYPO3 and the IP
• idea for the order: first show FE after the installation to demonstrate how quick users get a working web site, then show BE with explanation of logins, page module and all other (everything not too much in detail as the screencast should only be promotional)
• Should we also cover questions like: how do I change colors afterwards or structural things? If users ask me about the IP it is often about these things rather than editors' tasks. In order to go not too much in detail, we could just show where to change the CSS, TS, maybe see installed extensions a.s.o. so that users get an overview of all web site components in TYPO3 - or do you think this would be too much for this screencast?

Thx Daniela for your thoughts. Good points, would agree on the first two, have to think about the first one.
Still waiting for the feedback of Oliver Hader and Steffen Ritter.

Ah, nearly forgotten: I got an response from Oliver Hader last week. See below.

Hallo Christian,

sorry für die späte Antwort. Der Draft für ein generelles Introduction
Package ist soweit okay. Neben FAL, was ja nicht in 4.7 integriert
wurde, bleiben noch die Barrierefreiheit-Features auf HTML5 Basis,
allerdings ist dies auch spezifisch für Redakteure bzw. Techniker -
ergo schlecht als "Feature Vorstellung" zu präsentieren...

Evtl. hat Steffen als TYPO3 4.7 Release Manager noch
Anregungen/Wünsche... Herzlichen Dank schon mal an dieser Stelle für
die Arbeit des Screencast Teams!

Viele Grüße,
Olly

There is only one thing I would change: "When all went well, you can now switch over to your new website!" ... sounds a bit negative, not as promotional as the beginning of the script (whose promotional language I like). I would just say something like "Now you can already switch over to your new website!" The rest is just fine and seems to have the proper length.

Guess you mean: Now fire up your web browser instead of there is no fire up... ;-)

Hi Christian,

maybe at the beginning of "Explore it" there should be a bit more explanation, e.g.:
"...your new website, which is already packed with sample content about TYPO3 and all the things you can do with the cms. Later on, we'll show you how to add your own content to this website, but now let's take a closer look at the examples" or something like that ...?

I think it's good that you don't go too much into detail when showing the single pages. I was wondering if we need it at all or if we rather should pick out two pages, e.g. "Examples" and maybe "Customizing TYPO3"; but I guess mentioning all the pages is not that bad ;-)

There are a few typing errors like "Explorer it" and "Before the dig deeper" (we or you instead?), but I think there's no need to mention this in detail now. I guess it will get corrected while you continue working on the script or at the latest when Tom is proofreading it.
