I think you're totally right on about the volunteer-attendant ratio. Also, it's teaching the volunteers in the community to be teachers. That's not a natural gift for most of us, so learning about it is important, and it helps the diversity of any group if the participants become the teachers, then they help people like them enter the community. Really great project you & Sarah are doing and it's quite exciting! These are so great- sadly I couldn’t make this one- but I wanted to comment here on your post.

I had a fantastic time, learned what I needed to learn, and it was a comfortable, fun environment. Thanks to you and Sarah Mei for envisioning and organizing the workshop, all of the sponsors, and all of the mentors. Special thanks to my tutors at the workshop -- Stuart and Jim. I've told lots of people about the workshop and everyone is jealous that they didn't get to attend. Hope you will be holding another one soon. I heard about it from the posting on SFWoW.
