It seems there's a demand for structured learning as well as the
unstructured apprenticeship learning.  There is more than one learning
style.  Some people need the structure of a class to get started, others
just need to dive in.  These two approaches can be combined to make a great
boot camp.  In the army, recruits spend time both in the classroom and
practicing under the guidance of DIs.

Since this is an open effort, here's my contact info.

irc.freenode.net: drpentode (rarely on, but I can start)
[email protected] (IM on AIM and GTalk as well)
Skype:  jefferey.sutherland

I'd be happy to register a domain, and if we don't have a pivotal account,
start with a backpack or campfire free account, or even Google docs.  I'm
pretty open to different methods of task tracking.
