I can absolutely share as much as possible, my only contraint is time for now :/ 
More than the code, I think that our workflow, the problems faced and the solutions used may be interesting. I don't think some of you may pass by the Rennes aera in France, maybe we can organize a call or a videoconference ? I warn you that my spoken english is even worse than my written one :)

For the python mooc of 2016 the authors plans on using python3 instead of 2.7, it will be a good occasion I think to use jupyter instead of our home made solution, if it fulfill our needs (I didn't have time to check for now).

No

We don't have much numbers collected, but the feedbacks on the forum were really positive.

Yes of course !
