It has been discussed in November that RHCE can get a waiver for the T2d
(LPI Red Hat) exam. A general policy to this effect has been approved by
the board on 10 January (see
http://www.lpi.org/minutes/minutes_board_20000110.txt), so effectively
people will have done the equivalent of the T2d test before any LPI
test. Note however the final line from the policy:
"Unless otherwise provided for by the Board, waivers will only be
recorded after a candidate has attempted at least one LPI exam."
This has a technical reason, having to do with candidate registration and
administration. Since we will be certifying a specific level of
expertise, the breakdown into multiple exams is a matter of convenience
(or whim). I see no reason to require any order.
