Aloha,

If it's not an overly stressful financial or time strain, I'd say do it.

The group interaction, structure and process can be some of the most 
interesting and rewarding (one way or another ;-) parts of a PDC, 
content aside.

Plus you can plug the project!  And solicit ideas and so on!  :-)

If you do it, tell Penny (and Brock Dolman from OAEC if he's co-teaching 
some of it) I said hi!

cheers,
John S.
