* 15 hour days, 6 days in a row...

* 15 hour days, 6 days in a row... cause people to break down

* We need better organizers than me next time. (said by Bernie)

* One week passes by very quickly!

Line 66:

* Quiet people didn't talk because we didn't ask them what they thought.

* Long distance collaborators had a hard time on the phone.

:* Seconded. As a remote participant, I found it was hard to get attention during sometimes heated conversation. It was hard to stay focussed. It was hard to know what was happening and when (schedule changes etc). --[[User:Morgs|Morgs]] 14:43, 24 November 2008 (UTC)

* The relationship between OLPC and Sugar Labs remains unresolved.

* We didn't go into details on why we get frustrated with each other.

* Good ideas got interrupted by other good ideas.

* Organizing this talk caused a lot of conflict within/with OLPC.

==Possiblities==

* Create ongoing conference committee, and assign specific duties well before events (Conf. chair, venue, food, program, speakers, sponsors, A/V, moderators, funding,...)

* Ask for use of World Bank teleconferencing network (80 locations around the world) [I have some experience with this--[[User:Mokurai|Mokurai]] 03:57, 24 November 2008 (UTC)]

* Bigger conference with more people and multiple sessions divided into tracks (some selection from topics like Constructionism, Activities, Glucose, Health, Textbooks, Content, Localization, Translation, Outreach...)

* Bring in teachers, researchers from education schools, subject matter experts, children!,...

* Field trips to schools using XOs
