Hi Everyone, I know there has been a tutorial or two on FreeSwitch at TAUG meeting but there hasn't been any official trainings in Toronto or maybe all of Canada from the FreeSwitch team. I am very interested to explore FreeSwitch at a deeper level and I contacted Darren Schreiber (co-author of the FreeSwitch Book) and it seems they are interested to offer us their knowledge.
I am writing here to see how many of the members or non-members would like to attend a whole day event or maybe even a 3 day event. I am also posting here to see if we can have any volunteers to organize this. The session will include hands-on installation and running of the system so we require space, computer(s), and organizers. I can dedicate some time and equipment to it and have already talked to a few other members who are interested in this as well. But before going forward we want to know if you will be interested and would it be a 1-day course or a full training of 3-days course? Below is an example of what is covered in a 3-day course: http://freeswitchtraining.eventbrite.com/ A 1-day course might cost peanuts given the trainer offered free training for the 1-day course. Plane tickets, hotel, etc...might bring costs to ~$250 for 20 people which is a sweet deal for getting under the hood with a help of a pro. 3-days course is also offered but I am not sure how much that will cost us. Please let me know your thoughts and if you would be interested to join such a session within the context of TAUG summer meeting. All proceeds are to be used for organizing the event and the plane ticket/hotel for the trainer. - Bruce
