[ale] Teaching Opportunity

[lisa at accelebrate.com (Lisa Bell)]

Is it safe to assume that you are not interested in this freelance
teaching opportunity?  I don't want to banter back and forth.

LAMP (LINUX, Apache, MySQL, PHP), I don't see a W (Windows) in there
anywhere.  If you want to teach LAMP, you should do it on the targeted
architecture/OS.  So I question the wisdom (or lack thereof) in using a
Windows environment.

Criticize, yes I think it's ludicrous you would suggest teaching any
portion of LAMP on a Windows OS.  Further, I question the
professionalism and knowledge of a company that would consider doing
this.  I would never take such a course with such an environment, nor
recommend it.

As for 'your' insult, no, I suspect that I could handle both the 'doing'

and the 'teaching.'  Over 20 years of UNIX experience, Linux since 1995.

Why would you teach folks how to install MySQL and PHP on a windows box
when the intent of the training is LAMP (Linux)?
