Hi,
thanks Lars for bringing this up. 
So, I would also propose a special area or a separate repo for donated content. 
On the one hand,  material in this area could be taken „as is“ for anyone who 
wants to use it for trainings. On the other hand the material can be 
consolidated over time in the main/official training material set. This could 
be converting slides or cherr-picking text and images or just as inspiration.

Another option would be to put this into a complete separate (company) repo and 
to create pull-requests after review/discussion.

Kind regards,
Hans-Peter
