Excellent work Ed. 

Do you know if there's been any interest in the educational community in
developing training materials/courses? (I'm wondering about all aspects
of Linux: Sysadmin, general user, development, ...)

Note that I'm not looking for companies/people offering these
materials/courses, but am concerned if anyone in the educational or
Linux community is developing them. 

Thanks
