We are thinking about providing courses, so far the conferences were the
only place the tutorials were given. At the upcoming apacheCon 2000 it
seems that I would be the only person talking about mod_perl :( But this
time I would do it for 7 hours :)
Regarding the tutorial books, Eric and me are working on such a book :)

That's can be changed, the question is how many people wish to contribute
and make the mod_perl the technology of choice. There are too few articles
about mod_perl. I do write for perlmonth.com, and there are articles about
mod_perl in TPJ. You write about mod_perl in your wonderful WebTechniques
columns. But there are so many other online magazines, I wish more folks
would write articles and make a better name for mod_perl.

Good idea, I'll talk to them. May be TomC would put something on the
www.perl.com too... In the market place section :)
