Every document on Oracle's website related to XE licensing, and every statement by Oracle VP Mark Townsend clearly states that XE can be used for training.

Assuming everything you've said is the truth, I note you still have not made the actual doc available for us to read, then send Oracle U a copy of their own licensing docs, the statements by their own VP, and ignore them or, better yet, hire an attorney to send them a letter telling them to stop it.

I still have doubts you are giving an accurate accounting of the facts given you have not made the correspondence public so your statements can be verified.
