Thanks Ian!

Can we hold the class in the conference room and the Sprint in the  
entrance area... or something in this regards?

I certainly agree we should have some things set up before we start  
this time.hmmm, come to think of it i guess there are a lot of ways  
to approach this. We needed to throw out some more ideas and come to  
a census.

I would not object to having everything setup on a remote server and  
we just tunnel in. Even the static files could be setup over DAV.  
This way, not much is needed to be done on each persons machine. Was  
this what we tried last time. What went wrong? i can't recall.
