[BangPypers] [commercial] python/django training

[Santosh Rajan]

I have been reading this thread with interest, and I think this whole thread
is degenerating into a level of immaturity.

>From my experience in software engg, in the last 30 years, I have learned
that it takes me at least 3 months (this is only an average figure), to
train someone, into start becoming productive in any given language.

This is not about PAID or FREE. If you can train someone, for FREE for 3
months, FULL TIME, to become a productive software engineer, that would be
FANTASTIC.

But in my last thirty years, I have not been able to see anyone who could do
that!

You can argue till the cows come home about 2 day seminars etc, but there,
everything depends on individual capacity and ability of that person to take
things from there.
