Hi

Things are moving a bit slower than planned, as I still have some 
commitments which eat up a lot of time. I should be rid of these in 
about a month so I've moved my planned exam date to early summer.

To see an example paper, point your browser at:

How much Linux experience you need depends on how scholarly you are :)

I'd say 2 years experience would give you the minimum background 
knowledge to make sense of the syllabus, but then that shouldn't put off 
anyone with 6 months if they're keen. I've been using Linux for 3.5 
years and it's a bit of a shock to find out how much stuff I've avoided 
learning all this time.

Anyone else interested?

Cheers

Mark
