Hi Austin,
Since a month we have got a training podling as well. The goal of this
training
project is to gather and provide as much training material as possible.
This can vary from project specific material but I can understand that
'How-to
ASF' material is present as well. A website hasn't been created yet,
but the mailing list is quite active already, so if you need any material
you may ask over there as well.
