I accept, Baby!

One thing, communication is hard enough to accomplish face to face, but
preparing something as complicated as a bash mini-seminar as a brand new
two-man team could be daunting, to me at least.

I think the end-result would be more cohesive if just one of us were
responsible for it.  Team-teaching such a thing is a little too
sophisticated for me.  But I certainly need help with outline, examples,
critiques of code and so forth that I'll prepare for the list and class
prior to the presentation date.  

Also, I don't really have any experience making slides for a
presentation, so any help getting those ready would help.  Why don't I
get the outline fleshed out, along with mini-exercises, and perhaps even
a little workbook of, say, 10 pages or something.  And then whatever the
best way to get all that across in handouts, exercises, arm-waving, etc,
y'all can "edicate" me with.

That way, any special examples or problems can be elucidated and
incorporated by the time of the presentation.

Howdat sound?

I have a map of the United States.  It's actual size.
I spent last summer folding it.  People ask me where
I live, and I say, "E6".  -- Steven Wright
