Hey Roger

Yes, I taught Linux Administration last quarter and will be teaching it
again next quarter (Sept 20 to Oct 20 [approx]). 

Last quarter, I think I was a little over zealous or perhaps
overestimated my students and tried to cover more than one topic per
day. Unfortunately, I don't believe it gave them enough time to absorb
everything, so I'll be trying to cut back a little. There's just so much
to cover :(

next quarter:

Subject: [909linux] Linux Class that Will taught

William,

Did you ever teach that Linux class?  And if so, what did you teach?  Do

you have a syllabus and/or handouts you gave?

(Just curious)

Roger
