That's certainly very encouraging to hear. However, as I'm sure you're aware, the FreeBSD project is a global volunteer effort. There is no one "FreeBSD Organisation" for you to be associated with in any formal sense. The FreeBSD project also does not have any formal ties with the University California, Berkeley, either. Of course, that does prevent us from linking to information about your training courses from the FreeBSD web site, and other forms of publicity. And I'm sure that creation of FreeBSD courseware is a newsworthy event that will appear on the FreeBSD site, and sites like DaemonNews and Slashdot. Speaking as a European IT Consultant I also know of FreeBSD related=20 organisations that would be interested in partnering with you in developing= =20 courseware and other training materials. Please let me know if you would like more information.
