Thank you. very helpful.

I think @Bobo wins the comments here, but this was an excellent talk. It made me want to go out and play with Guzzle 6 right away and had a really good explanation of coroutines which is a pretty complex topic. The session was very informative, funny, and had a real-world example of how to put together something that would be very complex (uploading very large files into S3) as well as setting up workflows that could be asynchronous for parts but still have real needs for data to be returned to use in later requests. Good stuff.

There were a few technical issues and live coding issues, but it was good. I've been building APIs w/ Apigility since the day it was announced, but I use Zend\Db\Sql instead of TableGateway. It was cool to see what can be done using that wrapper. There's a ton of stuff to cover in a pretty short amount of time but it seemed that we may have made it a bit further in the examples (and example 4 would have been one of the cooler parts) with a bit more leading. Apigility does start to make a lot of sense after using it for a bit but if the audience is not familiar with ZF2 or even with Apigility before this talk, it may take a bit more for granted than it should. Thanks for the tutorial and for creating Apigility.

A little bit basic, but after this talk, now I have a robust knowledge of how composer works

This talk was a complete bait and switch. Although the title clearly states that it was going to be about using APIgility to build APIs, the talk turned out to be an advertisement of Microsoft Azure. Not cool.

The talk was ok, but the title did not really match the talk. It was more about Azure than APIgility.

The opening general session was fun. However, since we had already seen demos of Z-Ray and Z-Ray Live at past conferences I would've liked to see more time spent explaining Expressive.

Tough break on the internet problems, but watching Zeev throw those elephpants was fun in the meantime. :)
