Great project, and sorely needed.  We get a number of requests
for training, and do not have the resources right now
to develop a comprehensive program.

There are several  things to consider.  Hit me up off list.

This weekend is the NYCBSDCon conference so a fair number
of BSDCert people will be busy.  If you don't get a lots
of replies, that's probably why. We are definitely interested
though.
