Satisfaction: 2
Liked_Best: Generally, getting exposure to a wide range of things about eclipse development/ open source / software development.

Specifically, I really enjoyed the panel discussion about companies starting to use eclipse for RPC development, and hearing what they were going through. It would have been nice if it was longer, maybe a BOF?

Improve_Next_Year: I was just a few weeks new to eclipse development. I thought I knew what I wanted to go to for the tutorials, but found I would have been better suited to attend another. I found sometimes the same results on sessions during the week.

Might I suggest that you have more short talks at the start of the conference, having the presenters talk shortly about what will be covered in the longer talks and the tutorials. Then have more long talks in the middle that go into more detail about a subject. Then at the end have longer, more hands-on tutorials at the end. The longer talks in the middle cover topics more in depth, still cover the topic, and then refer to a tutorial for those who would like to try it out or go into more hands-on detail.
