Hi Ravi,
  Could it be possible to make all the materials used in the Winter School
open for us? I guess many people like me are interested in this, but may
not have time to attend the school in person. So, it will be good to make
it available for public. Besides, it will be great to video the lectures if
possible. I can put them in my website if needed.
