Feedback by Mijke

Feedback by Wilco

• + Location was great and nicely decorated
• + Met some very nice people and saw some others which I already knew
• + Very open to newcomers, no feeling of being left out or anything (Thank you, you're awesome!)
• + Decent food for vegetarians (Thank you so much, despite me being difficult! :))
• + Women! (At a nerd event, awesome \o/)
• + Good prices for the food stamps
• + Nice lounge, the mattresses are great (although they can't be trusted http://www.session416.com )
• - Too many people sniffing network traffic, not very good for the n00bs, maybe provide simple, but secure VPNs to the uplink next time?
• - Toilets not very clean the last day (but I wouldn't want to put it on the organisation to clean them, guests should keep 'em cleaner)
• - TMI on BugBlue in the bathtub :P

Feedback by FYI

• + Wilco: Very open to newcomers, no feeling of being left out or anything (Thank you, you're awesome!) +1
• + Lots of surplus /available equipment (beamers, e.d.) open to ad-hoc project things, vj'ing or just movies.
• + Good wireless coverage/network
• + FTP with HAR recordings and all kinda of hard-to-come-by coverage or presentations.
• + Visit from Fablab on wheels, always a plus.
• + (from the people on the event) great respect of others belongings and gear. Could leave stuff lying around without having to worry about their safety.
• - Digital (with fingers that is) ticket processing was slow (plus poor guy that had to type it all out).
• - Black benches had a tendency to shift around when leaning against them.
• - Unsecured network. Either put guides on the wiki or do some matter of securing (mostly to prevent POST and GET sniffing).
• - No signs spotted for people walking to the event (lightposts were out as well?) Maybe put up some sign/beacon combo deal light thing to mark the route.

Feedback by Murf

• + very positive atmosphere
• + the Hacker Beer really FLEW :-)
• + the bar, next time I'd LOVE to have that same professional and HUGE bar again
• + nice workshops and talks, I guess, haven't seen any of them unfortunately

• - the sniffing, I understand the humour and nature, but to be honest, I think it should be disallowed or at least with all usernames and passwords removed
• - toilets where clogged :-)
• - let a real DJ do it's thing and make the twitterDJ more accessible (AND controllable by the bartenders)
• - some general FTP dump, well accessible for all who care (I really HAD 40G of freshly ripped MP3's with me, but no place to leave them behind, sorry guys)
• - barstools where missing, so less incentive for people to just hang around a bit at the bar (and as a bartender, people just hanging around is just very nice)
