As far as I know, the only public training available regularly is the
Pragmatic Studio.  I fully agree that having some other alternatives
would be very useful.  I have even thought about putting something
together as I've done a couple private training sessions but it's a
lot of work.  Furthermore, I'm not sure if I want to become a trainer
as sorts but maybe it would be better for the local community if
someone did.

Now that I don't have conference organizing taking all of my free
time, I could ponder putting together a Ruby Bootcamp program.  I was
originally thinking something that met weekly in the evenings and
lasted for around 6 weeks.

The other thought along this line was to take on an apprentice to work
with me on my next project.  Though I would only be willing to take on
one, it would be very beneficial to that one developer.  Doing a Ruby
Bootcamp would help more people in a shorter time frame (the
apprenticeship would likely be a 3 month thing).

Just thinking out loud here.

Cheers,
Marty
