Hi Mark,
I think this is a great idea. Before doing any brainstorming though, I
wonder about the following:
1. Who'd be the target audience? And what skill level would you want to
target? Any pre-requisites?
The short version is whatever the Tomcat community (i.e. the members of
this list) would find most useful. Possible examples that come to mind are:
- an introductory course for an experienced sysadmin that knows nothing
about Tomcat
- in depth trouble-shooting
I've started working on such a course outline and a few chapters, indeed
for a training course specifically for sysadmins. It's probably not in a
state that makes sense sharing, as different chapters are in different
stages of outline/script/completion, and making sense of them will be
significant work.
I didn't think about a license for it - it was meant as "testing the
waters" of online training rather than "get rich fast", so I wouldn't
mind the Apache License on it. It got a bit on the backburner now that
I'm working on company e-learning, scratching that itch. If this
training gets traction, I'd happily pull out what's worth and can
finally contribute to the platform that I'm using for more than 15 years
- count me in.
The second step is to start populating the modules with actual content.
As a motivator to get this done, I'd like to run a public Tomcat
training course in late March / early April using this material. My
current thinking is that the course would cost ~£100 plus food per
person for the full day. Possible locations for this course are:
- Cardiff
- Birmingham
- Manchester
- Glasgow
(all in the UK - if successful we can expand to mainland Europe and
beyond)
That's quite ambitious timing (for me). I probably won't be able to put
in much during this time - I'd be interested though and trust that
you're updating us here on the progress.
As I'm working on software training in my daily life, and love it, I'd
like to join forces, just can't commit for too much help end of March.

My second request is for feedback on which location(s) are preferable
and what content would you like to see in the training course. I'll take
this feedback, put together a course and then make it available to book.
I look forward to all your ideas.
Mark
