Once again, thank you Pascal for your efforts this year. I really enjoyed the talks, the location, and appreciate the efforts you (and your family) made. My only (constructive!) criticism is this: we should honour the time allotments for each session. I know that sessions can go overtime, mainly because they are interesting talks/demos, but we owe it to ourselves as professionals to finish in the appropriate time. If we cannot, perhaps we allot time for run-off sessions at the end of the day, where anyone interested in asking further questions of the presenter of any talk do so at that time. This way the next presenter knows they will start at the correct time, and we can all trust the schedule. So this means presenters must turn up on time too :) I'm not talking "minute perfect" here, but even if we allow 15 minutes over for each session, we're out by a couple of hours a day. On this, some presentations (Q & A aside) do not take an hour, some take two. _All_ of them are interesting. We need to assemble the schedule appropriately. The recording and wifi situation really must be sorted out if we want to be taken seriously, and we want the group to grow. Lastly, the schedule should be publicly available over HTTP as a simple web page. You never know who might be reading it!
