They are on BlipTV, but for some reason, the video guy loses chunks of 
my tutorials each time.
My PyOhio tutorial is best for newbies wanting to get a feel for web 
content, and how it's served/handled.
I wouldn't mind doing it online, live, for a bunch of us.

I'll gladly do online tutorials. I am not sure what format you prefer: 
Moodle, IRC, or something else. Please let me know what you have in mind.

Yes, pummel away, and send whatever is relevant: code snippets, links, etc.

I'll take a look at this during the weekend. Please give me whatever 
access I need to navigate the system, see logs, gingerly put logging 
debug in code, etc., and I'll be happy to check it out. I'll record all 
of my findings, so everyone can learn from it.

Got it. How many different languages are we dealing with here? The 
reason I ask is because if we're using PHP and Python, for example, we 
may have to worry about bringing the PHP session ID over to Python, and 
vise-versa.

Sounds like fun!
