[p4] Introduction slides

[Steven Bougon]

Hi there,
 
I was asked to hold a brown bag on "Perforce for Dummies" for
non-technical
folks are our company. (read: Marketing folks are going to check in some
.xls files)
 
They need to know how to:
  - set up p4win
  - what and why SCMS
  - how to checkin/checkout
  - go through the revision history.
 
So, it's really a introduction on SCMS, with hands on P4Win
 
And yes, I already pointed them to the very good
http://www.perforce.com/perforce/doc.061/manuals/intro/intro.pdf
but I still need to produce some slides
 
So, before writing my own perforce4dummies.ppt, I wanted to ask if one
of you is aware
of such material available somewhere in the public area of the
perforce.com site ?
 
I searched and could not find it. Let me know if you know about
something similar
 
thanks a lot,
Steven
PS: I'm thinking about the following
1) What's wrong with Windows Explorer ?
2) Perforce allows you to:   
   * keep an history of a file change
   * retrieve a specific file revision
   * lock a file 
   * knows who is editing the file at the same time
   * have permissions set on some directories
   * receive an email everytime somebody modifies a certain file
3) How does it work (Perforce server, Metadata in a DB)
4) How to set up Perforce
   * request a user id/passwd
   * crtl+o to enter the good setting
5) Get started:
   * sync some files
   * edit one (description)
   * submit
6) advanced:
  * receive email notification
  * command line :-)
  * (internal) http://devweb and //xxx/yyy/... ????
  * windord and excel p4 plugin
7) DO and DON't
  * never delete a file, or change a file permission via Windows
Explorer
  * always use p4win to delete, edit a file
  * don't sync //xxx/yyy/... (couple if Gig) :-)
