The 10 bucks might come from IBM if they were approached properly,
otherwise it really insn't important if the training seminar could
be posted on the web for download.  That way it would cost no
organising body any money at all.

As for who would pay you for the 8 hours you spend, this is the
result of being a teamos2 member. No one would pay you.  You would
be expected to volunteer your time.  

As for my statement of not being able to give up a week to attend a
meeting of os2 people somewhere, this is very much different from
donating 8 hours of my time towards educating people about Warp. 
As a teamer from long before they were called teamers, I have
donated many 8 hour periods to new users of Warp.

Today I just came back from a Saturday training session at Supercom
here in Vancouver.  We setup a Warp Server, and 4 training machines
in the training lab they have.  We are preparing to do this
training at least once a month for Dealers in the Vancouver area.
