I have never posted to this list before although I have been around almost since its inception. I have had to make an exception to agree with the above. Some of the posts in this thread suggest either trolling or, pardon me, ignorant noobs.
IMHO, and with the caveat that I am not a software engineer, I _believe_ that anything that is _gratis_ is not quite likely to work well and will generally be of questionable quality; however, if it is not, it shall almost certainly be an exception. I have no idea who Kenneth is other than through his posts that I have read in close to a dozen communities for nearly half a decade (some of which I am no longer part of). Also, unfortunately, I have no knowledge of Django and/or how it is used in software industry. However, given my impression, if he is offering such a course, and if I had a choice, I would rather shell out the 25 K. Again I am not well informed but if as Kenneth claims (and not in jest) that a month's (gross/net ?) pay is likely to be higher than the cost of his offering, then it becomes even more prudent to go with him rather than someone offering a freebie but is otherwise rather unversed. -kk -- To know that we know what we know, and that we do not know what we do not know, that is true knowledge. _______________________________________________ BangPypers mailing list BangPypers@python.org http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/bangpypers
