classroom sessions.

[Phill Whiteside]

Hi Liz,

firstly, I hope you and yours have had a great Christmas.
Secondaly, I wish you and yours a great 2013.

@everyone else, you are included in these warmest wishes from me.

But, back to details. Using Virtual Machines for testing 13.04

virt-manager (KVM) in 12.10 is unhappy with running 13.04 as default -
there is a work-around, but it does make a classroom session awkward.
Vbox should be okay to go, I'm quite happy to host a session on that.
Test Drive I'm leaving in the hands of the guys who use it. - Noskaj.

One thing that we have discussed before is for pre-requisites such as your
example[1]. For us to have meaningful discussions, it is really a point
where we do *have to decide *do we ask people to pre-download a DVD sized
iso, or that we use an alternate sized CD image upon which we can build on.
At this point, politics kick in :(

Or, do we run more than more classroom session so that people who are DVD
size ability can hold that and those for whom bandwidth speed / capping is
an issue?

Maybe have a chat to Amber over how we deal with this split?

Here's to 2013,

Phill.
