Massimo, it is great to have such like this online course. Probably next course (if there will next course), I will join.
But, probably the biggest barrier for me to join is the course cost. I know, it is not fair ask for free course considering the efforts you put in this great software. But for people for me living in developing country $ 1,000 is big amount (bigger than my monthly salary :) ). So it would be nice to have 'special' course fare for people like me.
