Hey Chris,
I am giving an intrductory workshop on GeoServer WFS-T at the FOSSGIS 
Conference:
http://www.fossgis.de/wiki/index.php/Workshops_06#Mittwoch.2C_29._M.C3.A4rz.2C_11_Uhr_bis_13_Uhr

Preliminary content:
http://www.fossgis.de/wiki/index.php/Einf%C3%BChrung_GeoServer_und_WFS-T

We will show the Online service FIONA which went Online last week. It 
provides access to 80T farmers to get their EU subsidy grants by online 
digitizing their farmland (using GeoServer WFS-T and 
PostgreSQL/PostGIS). I'll translate the description asap.

If you have any material that we could use for the workshop we would 
appreciate if you cuold let us have it as soon as possible. We will 
translate it to German and give it back for the intl site / doc pool or 
similar.

Things are moving faster than us being able to finally meet in the 
committee...

Best, Arnulf.
