Some informations about Zope/Plone related activities at SUA can be found at http://fzki.uniag.sk in the ICT (IKT) section. The CMS, Zope, and Plone related resources are due to lack of the time still being moved to more appropriate locations http://cms.uniag.sk/, http://zope.uniag.sk/, and http://plone.uniag.sk/ respectively. All my stable products/tools remain available only at personal request (I realized that due to their nature - integration of different tools and services, a simple installation solution fitting a general use case might not exist). I wish to thank all of the Zope/Plone developers/supporters for their great work.
