Charles,

When you say it' sounds good to you, what exactly are you referring
to? It's a bit unclear, since you're including the digest message.

It's still a bit unclear to me how many people would be interested in
taking a formal day training class on Django with somebody like Steve
Holden. I believe Andrew Kou said he *might* consider it, but I didn't
see anybody else saying they're interested.
