(this is a followup to the class advertised at http://blog.melchua.com/2010/09/07/fedora-classroom-tuesday-sep-14-at-1600-u...)
Thanks to everyone who came yesterday! I was... honestly, stunned by how well it went. Lots of participation, lots of questions, lots of insight for me to digest in terms of how to teach these things better in the future. Here's the promised (first) followup email.
As is common for so many of us, I immediately got hosed with life and work *right* after running yesterday's classroom session on distributed collaboration tools. BUT: the first rule of followup is "release early, release often." Get *something* out within 24 hours, no matter what it is - perfection can come later.
Thanks to Zodbot, I can send this in just a few minutes because we've already got logs and minutes from the session: http://meetbot.fedoraproject.org/fedora-classroom/2010-09-14/basic_distribut... - so those of you looking for notes and for what happened (the full log is, imo, worth reading - lots of great questions in there)
I'll be following up with a longer email on Thursday and individual pings for the folks who asked questions - feel free to shoot questions to the lists and/or my way.

PS: Mike and Michal, can you ship this to the Red Hat lists you advertised on for the watercooler? Thanks!
