Total Sessions26-30

*No prerequisites, but context of entire ccTLD course is needed.

If we assume 4 sessions per day, then 30 sessions is 7.5 days. If we assume that we are likely to be teaching a 5-day workshop, then we will be able to cover 20 of these available topics. This is actually what we are hoping for as we expect that each specific Advanced ccTLD workshop will be customized based on attendee requests for topics and/or what makes sense for the area where we are teaching.

These are top-level topics. Based on what is decided here we will update the course outline on the main wiki page.

Revised after a review meeting in Paris on September 20, 2007. This is a raw list of topics, what materials we already have, who will (likely) work on what pieces, and any other notes that may be pertinent.

Additional work will include taking finalized materials and making them consistent to present a consistent experience to the Advanced ccTLD Workshop participants.
