I had Brad as a lecturer when I did CS1. The courses offered by Adelaide
all concentrate on Java and are much more intensive then required.

Generally I'm looking for something with 1 (or 2) nights a week for a
couple of hours (maybe about 3 or 4) with some homework for due each
week.

I had a look at this list and couldn't see anything apart from a some
advanced C programming stuff. About ~10 years ago I did a C++ night
course with TAFE but can't seem to find anything like that now.

I have signed up to this list, but a search of their archives looks like
it is not promising.

This group appears to be in Melbourne. Know of any in Adelaide?

I guess I could also try the LinuxSA list. Been almost 8 years since I
was last active with them, wonder what they have been up to.

Thanks for your help.
