Alan,
   A very interesting idea.
   Note that the CERN school seems oriented to the computing needs of 
the LHC community.  This tends to 'throughput' computing rather than to 
'performance' computing.  I'm not sure whether you intend to keep this 
same emphasis.  We'd probably need to have a broader range of emphases 
in order to get critical mass of participants.
