A number of people who have been on previous courses would I suspect
like something like that. But..

(1) It's now a "two day" or at least "1.5 day" presentation of Exim. I
can't do it all in one day any more. A couple of extra speakers, as last
time, is fine, but if we put in more, we'd need more time.

(2) We haven't the resources to run what almost amounts to a mini-
conference with lots of extra speakers. (And to make things even worse
than usual, one of our two course admins has just resigned, and all
recruitment is currently frozen for this year.)

It turns out, from the replies I've already had, that there seem to be
quite a few people who would attend a repeated basic course.
