I've been teaching a CFML class at our local Community College here for
the past couple years which I developed my own curriculum for. I set up
a VPS with CF7/CF8 on it here at the Vivio Data Center and have the
students FTP into it to do their course work. It's worked pretty well so
far.

I also talked with a few of the folks at Adobe at CFUnited (when they
made this particular announcement) and offered to donate my curriculum
to the cause if they needed. So far I haven't heard anything back from
them about it - and I've emailed them a couple times since CFUnited.
Perhaps I'm just not emailing the right person, I'm not sure.

It's understandable if folks create their own curriculum, but an
existing set would make for a nice starting point IMHO.

If nothing else, I can wrap it up into a nice little package and offer
it to the community as well. We'll see.

Warm regards,
