I'd actually word it a little bit differently:
If there is only *ONE* attendee who did not properly do the homework, it
will have a massive impact an the rest of the group. And that somebody
will show up unpreparedly is absolutely certain in my opinion.


With sufficient trainers, one can continue for most and provide some 
assistance to the one falling behind.

As someone who actually got started through the YPDD beginner track (and
also often recommends it to new beginners), my opinion is clearly that
we either should have it, be it only for a handful of attendees, or
offer a *real* replacement, with face to face training. My experience is
that this personal thing in the very beginning is an absolutely
essential part of many YP/OE careers.


I agree. That is how I started, next to a compressed Linux Foundation 
Yocto training that was offered just before the event then.

So it might be wise to ask LF or get something organised. It would 
mostly require a room and a sponsor for some small devkit.

Just for the record, speaking as a professional trainer, and someone who makes 
material available before classes in the hopes that people will do “pre-class 
homework”, almost nobody even glances through any material sent before class. 
And many people claim to have never received it (for various reasons, but often 
because it ends up ignored or in spam).

Essentially I wouldn’t count on anyone actually looking at anything before 
arriving, because statistically nobody does.

That’s correct. We’ll provide previous beginner material as pre-class homework.

So does this mean there won’t be a beginner class at all?

Hi Armin,
  
Thanks for letting us know. The security summit overlaps with a lot of things, including the first ELC day.
  
Hopefully we can make it work by fine-tuning the agenda in such a way that you attend just the portion of the day that is interesting to you, or you are presenting.
  
Let’s talk more during the advocacy call.
  
Thanks!
Andreea

Greetings,
  
Yocto Project is pleased to announce the plans for the upcoming Embedded Linux Conferences in NA and Europe.
  
Here is a snapshot of our schedule:
  
ELC NA – Wednesday, August 21 - 23, 2019, Hilton San Diego Bayfront, San Diego, CA
                    Yocto Project is a sponsor. We’ll see you on the show floor
  
ELC NA Dev Day – Tuesday, August 20, 2019 - 8:00AM - 6:00PM
Set-up: 1 Meeting Room - Classroom Seating ( 60 people)
Level: Intermediate – Advanced. Participants will receive beginner material 
(videos and presentations) as pre-requisites
Includes: Morning Break, Buffet Lunch, Beer & Wine Reception with light 
appetizers
So beer is a prerequisite for Intermediate level?

This is a conflict with Linux Security summit unless someone can convince me to 
be part of the training?

We will call out an Advocacy meeting in a couple of weeks to go over plans and vote on the ideas for the second day of the summit.
  
Thanks!
