\Dear Mr. <name here>
Thank you for signing up for the online Machine Learning class.
We are now open for enrollment at http://www.ml-class.org/. Enrollment is limited, so we encourage you to register soon on the website. Once you register, you will also have access to a preview of the first week of content, where you can get a head start on the lectures and exercises.
Feel free to forward this email to your friends who might be interested in machine learning. If you have friends also taking the class, we strongly encourage you to form a study group to discuss the material and help each other with the technical content, and perhaps even to get together at a regular time to watch the videos together. Having a study group can make learning this material easier and more fun!
Please go to http://www.ml-class.org/ to enroll. We look forward to helping you become an expert in machine learning!

The Intro to Databases class enrollment also opened!
http://www.db-class.org/Introduction to Databases Course Description:
This course covers database design and the use of database management systems for applications. It includes extensive coverage of the relational model, relational algebra, and SQL. It also covers XML data including DTDs and XML Schema for validation, and the query and transformation languages XPath, XQuery, and XSLT. The course includes database design in UML, and relational design principles based on dependencies and normal forms. Many additional key database topics from the design and application-building perspective are also covered: indexes, views, transactions, authorization, integrity constraints, triggers, on-line analytical processing (OLAP), and emerging "NoSQL" systems.
