I do training as well, but do far less public courses - mainly as I'm too busy on programming work to arrange them :-) If we could get the numbers up then we could get potentially get all three of us along. There is also the possibility of having other instructors on the bill - like yourself for instance. My thought is that just having a short meeting is hard to justify in terms of costs and time, the a paid course could making it more viable for more speakers. But I am not sure if universities would like to host commercial events like > osg training courses?! Hence if we decide to have the courses in parallel, > then we will need another venue.

I would expect a commercial course would require the uni to be paid for the lecture room. We might we'll need to pay for just a lecture room for a non commercial meeting.
