Hi,
Well, I am not sure if this is a good idea, and I am a bit reluctant posting this...
Anyway, there isn't much time left for in-depth preparation for the beta. The printed or web resources focused _exactly_ on the new exam are also kinda scarce, since the HF SCWCD is not available yet, and the the Study Kit by Mr. Deshmukh may be partly obsolete.

And prably everyone preparing for the exam takes some kind of notes. So, I wondered if sharing (either posting it here, or on some other forum or wiki - I can provide a forum for this purpose) these notes we make for each subpoint of the objectives wouldn't speed things up a bit.
I imagined it this way - someone posts notes on a specific objective subpoint, there is a discussion, corrections are made, the thread is then closed and the final notes are published on a web page. All objectives would prably be ready in a week or two...
I suppose that if the people taking the beta exam are better prepared, they will be able to spend more time on assessing the questions and providing more valuable feedback to sun.
On the other hand, this may sort of standarize the preparation source, which may in turn lead to biased opinions.
I can't really decide if it would be useful or harmful, for me personally - this would be a great help. What do you think?
rgds,
miro.

Miro,
This is a good idea. Since the objectives are posted in the original SCWCD 1.4 beta thread... but no current text covers the objectives, it makes sense to consolidate resources aimed at the 1.4 beta here. I hope that all persons preparing for the 1.4 beta will post applicable resources so that we may all benefit.
Thanks,
Michael
