Re: PyCamp concurrent with Plone Boot Camp

I now have full approval from work to attend PyCamp.  So, count me as a definite regardless of what week it is (hopefully) offered.  How is the interest so far looking for PyCamp?

40 people.

Defined outline. I assume the interest is to learn Python. The material
in the can from last time. I spent several hundred hours putting it
together. I don't get in front of 40 people and wing it with whatever
anybody is interested in. It's a boot camp. You come. You learn. Or drop
and give me twenty. :)

*Depending* on how many people are going to Regular Plone Boot Camp and
then PyCamp, *and* how much time I might have to do this beforehand,
*some* of the material later in the week might be retooled to Plone
examples. This is something Joel and I have talked about. However, I
would limit that according to how many people in PyCamp class are not
there because of Plone. It would take pretty much a unanimously Plone
class to go beyond anything more than, "Let's use Clouseau to go
exploring in Plone with Python," though.
