I'm really looking forward to my talk, it's titled Best Practices for Building Public Facing SharePoint WCM Sites.
Using a completely custom built SharePoint WCM site, I'm going to cover topics such as:
- Topology of a public facing SharePoint WCM site
- Solution architecture
- Organizing your Visual Studio and SharePoint solutions
- Using a custom publishing site definition
- Branding
- Considerations for public facing sites
- Content authoring
- Content deployment
- Authentication
I'll also make my slides and source code available immediately after my talk. Looking forward to seeing everyone there!
