[IAEP] Sugar Camp Refection

[Carlo Falciola]

Hi!, 
 Absolutely astonishing approach, let me try to add my bit as non-native english speaker: 
Switch from paper to something electronic (we had a projector, just needed to leave a "dedicated" pc to the task), maybe a wiki page would do.

The pros will be: Better readability of topics, auto documentation of process, (and hopefully) chance to get remote people to partecipate to process.
The cons I see: Writing down topics may take bit longer, Dot & checks implementation to be figured out...

ciao e a presto !

The additional day might be used to start hacking on the top-priority
actionable item identified by each group.  Experienced contributors can
use this opportunity to guide newcomers through the procedures to get
things done.  Very constructionist, uh?

This works very well for development, but it could probably be applied
to marketing and other activities as well.
