What I am trying to do here is to cover a wide range of levels, from 'just heard of LDAP' up to 'need to do something quite advanced'. I would like to make this available for free to Edinburgh students and staff.
I am wondering whether I have put the right things in parallel though - would it be better to run the two intro sessions against one of the more advanced topics (Shawn's for example)? If so, should we aim for a more obvious 'beginners track/advanced track'?
Thoughts?
