I have at least two volunteers (including self to run the tutorials course)
I am looking for more. I believe it would be helpful if we can structure a
non commercial tutorials. As I continue to look for more volunteers - is
there anyone on the list who would be keen to volunteer for the same (ie.
running a part of the tutorial sessions) ?

This is not meant to preclude us finding out about the policies of the
institution when offering paid for tutorials - I think we need to keep both
the possibilities moving.
