[erlang-questions] Newbie training project proposal

[Zac Brown]

Hi Tom:

    I'd be interested in participating. I have a small amount of Erlang
experience, that is I understand the language and the practices, though
not necessarily the best way to do things :). Email me off list if
you're interested.
