Hi SJ,

Well, that is why I post this request for help. I do not understand what
 you mean with a "month-long workshop" in this context. I request people
to help with wikizine. People interested can contact me.

Then we proceed, I explain how things work and what exactly can be done.
 And then we will see what comes from it and how long it will last.
There is not really training involved. I will try to guide it so that
Wikizine remains wikizine and not something else but that is basically
it (Wikizine concept and style).  It is mostly a matter of doing it, not
training.  And finding people who will help to make it happen of course.

Greetings,
Walter
