Hi Paul, A very good observation, I'd been operating under a similar assumption. An overview sort of like the 5-minute intro at the Open Source Showcase BOF, but more in-depth. Hopefully SIGGRAPH will allot our BOF more time to accommodate. But I do think we should continue to pursue the actual course route. Probably start developing course proposal now-ish ;-)
