Hi Kenn, thanks for looping us into that conversation! I'm afraid I have no real answers at this point, to be honest. I think the original proposal was a little bit too narrow in that is mostly focused on slides and labs, but even in the short time that we have been active I think we have found that there is more material out there than just that and that this all fits well with the overall objective (see Isabel's git exercises for example).
I think the general idea of having instructional material gathered in a central place to improve the chance of reusability can be directly applied to this scenario. If someone decided at some point to create Beam training materials, then this might be a fantastic basis (or even be used as is) for the labs to that training. And thinking even further, parts of the Kata could be reused for an HBase training (hypothetical scenario, haven't checked whether there is HBase code in there), when discussing ingest possibilities. So we'd, of course, be thrilled to host that material. At the same time, I can also see the Beam repository being a good place for it for obvious reasons. So as I said, no real answers, just an opinion :) Best regards, Sönke On Thu, Apr 18, 2019 at 11:57 PM Kenneth Knowles <[email protected]> wrote: > Hi Training! > > Recently Beam received an offer of some training materials called "Beam > Kata" [1].
