That's one of the reasons I built the open system eu.9p.zone. the idea 
was that we can build many (fileserver) systems around the world (hence 
the "eu" in the domain) with cpu servers people can join and learn how it 
is to be on a shared 9 system.

Eu.9p.zone currently runs on a VPS network and consists of 2 machines 
(one fs+cpu and one cpu-only). The auth server is one public auth server 
at 9p.zone (with some self-signup scripts I still need to improve).

The purpose of the auth server is that devs and community can provide 
many EXTRA services as they like and users in that authdom can just use 
them (provided they get access via permissions). In my case, after 
account creation at the 9p.zone auth users need to request access to the 
fs.eu.9p.zone (again, via script).

It's probably quite similar to the bootcamp, but it's more about general 
use and working on projects together than just learning, so it's also 
good for long term projects. However, I don't know if people work on 
projects there.
