Hello everyone,
Thank you for your detailed feedback. I have captured it on the oVirt
wiki [0] for later reference. I have also shared these notes with the
Linux Foundation Events Team.
I believe we have sufficiently detailed feedback to help us plan the
next workshop. I'll address this item during this week's oVirt IRC meeting.

Cheers,
