I'll try to record it and post it soon as I can so we don't have to wait until those who are at the event to report about it.

...It's NASA, so I'm allowed doing that, right? Works of a government agency are public domain, right?

Edit: never mind, they're posting videos at noon.

Has anyone seen a download link to the announcement or training sessions yet? I am doing my best to be patient, but I feel like a Kid in a Candy Store.

Art, I appreciate the link. There is a problem though, but I am not certain if it is me or the site.
I am looking for what was stated in the e-mail:

Specifically I am looking for the team training and mentor training, neither of which appear to be on the site you linked to or any of it's further links.
