 * What formats of training are people using?  Is the balance of formats changing over time?  What advantages / disadvantages are there to the different formats available.
 * How do you decide on what topics to develop training material for?  How much interest do you need to do this, and how mature must the field be to justify writing training material.
-* Where groups develop their own material do you release it publicly?  If so, where?  What licence do you use?  Do you offer to present courses as a commercial service?

 * How to make training scalable, sustainable, in the absence of institutional funding?
 * Does training cut into your bread-and-butter work? I'd argue that increasing the overall bioinformatics expertise of researchers is a good thing, but if you teach someone how to do X (e.g., RNA-seq alignment and DE), then they no longer come to the core and pay the core for X.
