I really loved Tessa's points dealing with conflict and resolution and reminders to focus on respect. The talk did feel like it could be slightly more focused but overall I found it beneficial.

Mathew is very obviously comfortable on stage and was able to adapt and continue even when realizing he had brought an older version of his slides and was missing some information. There was a LOT of information in a very short time, but provided in a way developers could decide what to expect if they wanted to get started in Magento and, if so, where to look for resources.

Mathew provided many, many resources and examples on how to reach peak performance in Magento. Everything was very organized and easy to understand with actionable advice and places to go later for more information.

Josh did a great job providing information, resources for further learning and an opportunity to get started creating your first extension for Magento. At the end, everyone had access to installs of Magento 1 and 2 on their local machines with knowledge of what to look for when getting started with the code.

As a Community Manager for an open source community (Magento), I found your talk really helpful. Your stage presence is fantastic, so kick that imposter syndrome to the curb! You did a great job of mixing your personal story with actionable advice to anyone else growing, participating, or thinking about participating in an open source community.

Lorna is a very engaging and practiced speaker. The message is delivered well and the audience is engaged and interested. Despite a late night and many tired eyes in the crowd, Lorna kept the talk lively, interesting, informative, encouraging and inspiring. Really well done.

It's a lot of topic to cover in just an hour, for sure. It should probably be expanded to a full tutorial length, but there was a good little bit of overview of what you can do with ansible and what apigility does. Either of those individual technologies could definitely take an entire tutorial on their own. For an hour talk it would probably be best to just briefly show the output of an apigility API and then dig a little more into how Angular works with those APIs or mention what angular is doing briefly and dig more into Apigility.

This was a great overview of the changes in Symfony 3. The presenter is very easy to listen to as his style is smooth and polished. Great information and I'm glad I went.

I really appreciated this talk. There was a lot of history about the Whole Foods development teams and the transitions that they have made. I think that part could be condensed so that more of the core Scrum/Agile methods that they have landed on that work could be focused on. I certainly enjoyed the information presented. The presenter's style was easy to listen to and smooth.

I think I said it before...I really like listening to Chuck. He's always easy going and entertaining. He owns the platform. And knows what he's talking about. I like that he shared the whole set of important files for setting up his actual live, real-world project.
