i'm happy to be an advisor to the process wherever it would help too. john, brian and i worked with lernanta when we were first getting it set up from batucada. i've probably installed it about 8 times on different systems and am reasonably familiar with the code base (or at least the code base prior to zuzel's work, which i don't imagine has changed the overall architecture that much, but correct me if i'm wrong!). <div>

I'm thinking we could do a study group this upcoming round of classes/groups, gather up all the gotchas/questions we find, and use that to build up the documentation for future developers. We can probably reuse some things already in place like #p2pu-dev (for those that are of the IRC variety). Maybe once we finish we can update <a href="http://new.p2pu.org/en-US/courses/lernanta-dev/" target="_blank">http://new.p2pu.org/en-US/courses/lernanta-dev/</a> ?<div>

</div><div><br></div><div>In addition to the great resource that is Zuzel and each other, we have help as well with <a href="https://github.com/p2pu/lernanta/wiki" target="_blank">https://github.com/p2pu/lernanta/wiki</a> so that's awesome :) </div>
<div><br></div><div>I know you're insanely busy, Zuzel, and we'll be calling on you when we can't figure out stuff ourselves. </div><div><br></div><div>I'm going to -- when I can -- set up the task list (sounds better than a syllabus to me) as group editable and we'll grow (sic) from there!</div>
