Conference feedback

Liked the conference, learned new things which is always useful. Thank you!



Thanks, interesting talks, useful tips. Well organized!


Great event! I tried to cope as much as possible. Sometimes my little kids were around, hanging around my neck, asking for chocolate milk but I couldn't stop paying attention to the many interesting things that were being presented. Congratulations!!!

Thank you very much for your effort. I am looking forward for more similar useful events. I can't wait to follow all on-demand sessions.


Excellent presentations and discussions! I had technical problems with Flash Player for one session only, for all other sessions it was okay, so the problem was not on my side. Hope you can check this in the near future.
