[00:04] <nhaines> Gareth: I'm writing an Ubuntu beginner's book that will be out tantalizingly close to the SCALE dates, so I would like to plug it heavily during the conference.  Are there any classroom instructor slots needing filled or whom to I talk to about that sort of thing?
[00:05] <Gareth> nhaines: You should talk to Orv Beach, he's teaching the beginning sessions again.  I can make an intro if you don't know him.
[00:05] <jose> well, afaik ubucon is Richard Gaskin
[00:05] <jose> ah, you got it covered :)
[00:05] <nhaines> Gareth: I do know him, and he's awesome like everyone.  I'll ask him about it.
[00:05] <Gareth> Sounds good.
[00:05] <nhaines> jose: yes, I passed Ubucon off to Richard two years back.  ;)
