I think the format generally proved to make sense; it really helped the 
conversation to flow in an informal but still productive fashion.

The two downsides from my personal POV:

- room choice; I guess that's pretty obvious and not really worth too 
  much discussion (especially the pillars and the constant noise being 
  generated by the staff in the background)

- I can't help it, but the overall number of attendees seemed to be a 
  little bit *too* small. I'm not asking for a revival of a 90+ people
  on the kernel summit (that absolutely doesn't fit the nature of 
  discussions and the format), but perhaps 40 would make sense? There 
  definitely were a few moments when I felt that the discussion came to 
  a point where having one particular missing person would be helpful.

  I guess that given this was the first time we've had this limited
  setup, we are still converging to the "best" group size?

Thanks,
