*What did you like the least about event?*
- Our event was a lot of talk and less interactivity. I wish we had
   planned more interactive parts to engage our attendees and get them
   involved with the event. A list of ideas for hands-on activities would be
   helpful.
   - Our event in particular was very long.
   - Was very difficult to me looking for a good speaker.
   - Hard to gather participants if u r not involved in a related club.
*What did you like the most about event?*
- We had active Fedora contributors local to our city and participate in
   the event. The guest speakers were a great addition and added a dynamic of
   how FOSS / Fedora can go outside of the academic / student world.
   - Having an event to try to get more diversity in open source and
   reaching out to minorities.
   - Generate an space to talk about technology and the same time generate
   an small community of girls looking work together.
   - Attendees interested in the free software world.
   - Helpful fedora D&I team.
   - It helps raise awareness and it is the way to express thanks for the
   women contributors across the Fedora Project.
   - The events celebrates the presence of Women in Fedora and also it

   - More breaks in our scheduling and more direction on topics from Fedora
   would be nice.

   - Greater publicity for the events of Fedora.
   - More follow-up with participants after the event, hackathon with
   participants to get them started.
   - We should involve some activities and also follow-up sessions.
   - Event can be improved by settings some measurable goals.
*Are there any other comments or suggestions you'd like to make?*

   planning prior to event to get reservations, invite guest speakers, and
   coordinate outreach.
