Over time I’ve been refining a Seaside tutorial and the recent week-long workshop at Santa Fe gave a good opportunity to polish it further. GemStone has agreed to make it available for download.
The workshop was a good experience and in addition to learning Seaside several people started new projects, including a Google Maps library. If you are interested in having a Seaside tutorial/workshop in your area, please contact me at James dot Foster at GemStone dot com.

Hello James,
A nice error to show in Chapter 7 is forgetting the ^ in children (page 2).
It’s a mistake I’ve made often, and is probably difficult to understand.
It is not debuggable from the web, and leads to:
Internal Error

Chapter 9 page 2 refers to a WAExpirySession in the text, but not in the code. That’s confusing.
[Thanks, Stephan! This and other corrections found by Stephan and others have been incorporated into the latest version. –James]

Awesome Tutorials!
Some comments:
On chapter 11, page 7 there’s a copy-paste mistake.
When talking about tables in CSS, you proposed the idea of putting the “Save” and “Close” buttons on different rows in the “LVEventEditor” table.
However, in the copypaste both buttons got to be “cancelButtons”.
For an easy check compare both “Save” collaborations from “renderButtonsOn: html”. The one in page 6 makes it a “submitButton” while the one in page 7 makes it a “cancelButton”.
Thanks for the tutorials. They were and still are very helpful.

Thank you for the great tutorial!
I was able to set up a playground using a GS64 server on Mac OS X and development on Windows using your Jade tools.
