It's the traditional time of year for us to plan our workshops to help

This time around I'm open to ideas about changing the format,
structure and topics. Think outside of the box! What ideas do you have
to making workshops easier for people to attend? More relevant to
people attending? Do we want to do screencasted video?
Let's gather some thoughts before we come up with a list of topics we
want to cover (but don't be afraid to toss in a "new" or "different"
topic idea now). After we select topics we'll ask for instructor
volunteers and finally schedule them. I suspect most will occur during
the month of November / early December once everything is said and done.

I think that maybe instead of having workshops on IRC it's best to have
some screencasted videos on how to do things.
I personally find videos better than IRC sessions for me videos make
things easier to understand as you actually see whats been done.
More or less something like this was very helpful to me:

maybe put this link in a walkthroug wiki page like this:
https://wiki.ubuntu.com/QATeam/ContributingTestcases/Autopilot
So you can go a whatch the video and read the wiki whenever you want.
Maybe IRC sessions can be held for new comers to ask questions about
doubts they have after watching the video, but not sure how this can be
done.
