  1. Love the idea, but just saw a little tiny problem with your choice of exercise names. Contoso is a company name used by Microsoft. They have registered the domain and I believe they have even registered the company name.

    I suggest a find and replace for some other fictitious name, make one up (but check you haven't accidently hit a real one).

    All the best,
    Dave
