Thanks for the suggestion Kevin, and Niall for sending the snippet. I'd like to gauge interest from the committee here:
1) Would this be helpful for our community? 2) Who would we invite to the training? 3) How would we go about opening the training to these folks? Since I know there are opinions about opening trainings just for a selected group. I'd like to hear suggestions in how to make this a possibility, I think this would be a great training.
