This fall, Koumbit is offering up training series to its members and Montreal's Drupal community. Our Aegir training will empower Drupal users, developers and administrators to make full use of the tool in their work. You can find the rest of our trainings posted on our member site.
Aegir is a batch administration system for Drupal sites. It allows the updating, automatic installation and cloning of Drupals. The development version also supports DNS and multiple servers.
This training targets sysadmins or Drupal developers who wish to install and manage their own Aegir installation. The training will cover:
- Installation and configuration of Aegir
- Management of site and code deployment with Aegir
- Debugging Aegir
- Managing platform with git
- Expanding your Drupal farm
Space is limited so reserve a spot as soon as possible!
The training will take place at Koumbit's offices.
This training will be in French with simultaneous translation to English on request.

Allow auditing the class via screencast?
Hey good luck with the class Antoine!
Man, it'd be cool if it was possible to audit the class via screencast. Wouldn't have to be live. Maybe charge a reduced fee? Management here would probably buy a screencast to help train our team.
I know that setting up a screencast of a class is non-trivial, so just throwing this out there.

Hey, we didn't plan to do a
Hey, we didn't plan to do a screencast - there are a lot of costs associated with doing one - in brief, we would need to fundraise around 500$ to do it. If you could get say four other people who are willing to chip in 100$, that would do the trick.
Meanwhile, I will be checking in with folks to see if we can get a screencast done.
No go. We can't find someone

Salut, On va certainement
Salut,
On va certainement produire un screencast Aegir en français, mais pas dans le cadre de la formation (histoire de ne pas compliquer la patente). Je vais m'assurer de largement diffuser son existence une fois quel existe, mais en attendant, noté. Merci :-)
