<div dir="ltr">I am following up on the original intent of holding openstack user group meetings using the openstack training guides. The plan is to start with the associate guide and hold (6) 2 hour meetings starting the week after the summit. If this works, then perhaps we can develop this into associate training leading up to the summit, upstream training at the summit, followed by the more advanced training over the next release cycle. I am a bit murky on how we coalesce the slightly different training materials, but I'd rather forge forward before answering all questions.<div><br></div><div>Some logistical problems have started showing up as we were thinking through what needs to happen and by when. </div><div>- we will need the network, object, and assessment quizzes completed. that isnt a huge deal since we have until jan until we hit the gap. i will track in the project.</div><div>- if a laptop with enough mem or disk isn't available, we should have a backup like rackspace vm option instructions. again i will track in the project.</div><div>- we will need to do trainer training. creating trainer notes for each chapter seems like a likely requirement. I am guessing that most trainers will revert to printing out the material and making notes on paper. this will be a problem. another issue to track in the project.</div><div>- we will need to find, train, and retain trainers to help us make this work. Myself, Rick Evans, Polina Petriuk have discussed participating as trainers. I am hoping that Stef and Tom can help us find a few more sfbay area speaker/trainers.</div><div>- we will need to find other user groups willing to clone our work asap, so we can get more, better. I have spoken with Shannon McFarland (Denver) and Mark Voelker (Durham) and they are interested.<div><br></div><div>The proposed training schedule below. I am including the likely Kilo release dates as they will impact our availability.</div><div><br></div><div><span style="font-size:13px;font-family:Arial">1) session 1: 20 nov chapters 1-2 getting started </span><br><span style="font-size:13px;font-family:Arial">2) session 2: 04 dec chap 3-4 controller</span></div><div><span style="font-size:13px;font-family:Arial">Week of 05 dec M1</span></div><div><span style="font-family:Arial;font-size:13px">3) session 3: 18 dec chap 5-6 compute</span></div><div><font face="Arial">holiday break</font><span style="font-size:13px;font-family:Arial"><br></span></div><div><span style="font-size:13px;font-family:Arial">4)session 4: 22 jan chap 7-8 network</span><br><span style="font-size:13px;font-family:Arial">Week of 23 jan M2</span><br><span style="font-size:13px;font-family:Arial">5) session 5: 05 feb chap 9-10 object</span><br><span style="font-size:13px;font-family:Arial">6) session 6: 19 feb chap 11-12 assessment</span><br><span style="font-size:13px;font-family:Arial">Week of 20 feb feature freeze propose</span><br><span style="font-size:13px;font-family:Arial">Week of 06 mar feature freeze, M3</span><br><span style="font-size:13px;font-family:Arial">Week of 27 mar - 17 apr release</span><br><span style="font-size:13px;font-family:Arial">Week of 15 may design summit</span> </div><div><br></div><div>Let's discuss this at the next training-guides meeting. </div><div dir="ltr"><br><div>~ sean</div></div>
