TeX-ability a little on the rusty side

There have been a couple of instances where LaTeX has dropped in to conversation recently, specifically related to research (oddly enough). The questions have generally followed the form of:

  • Why don’t we provide training in TeX to Early Stage Researchers?
  • Are the new Collaborative Tools going to cope with TeX?

The first is something that I think should be provided as standard training fodder for numerate-types when reaching the lofty heights of Posgraduatedom. I think the problem comes with providing an easy-to-use and easy-to-manage distributed TeX environment.
