We got bad video that I'll post, and two sets of slides: Alan's intro to Pig and Daniel Dai's new features in Pig 0.11. We had TONS of questions to a panel of three (from the left: Mat Kelcey, Alan Gates, Doug Daniels), and I will track/comment in JIRA when questioners aren't able to do so and post a summary here/@user. Many questions were about low-hanging usability fruit, which is exciting, as they are (relatively) easy fixes. There was positive feedback about the new outputSchema API.
I'll post all this stuff once we're airborne. Other highlights included: * We flyered for the event all over Strata. I played human billboard. * The flyers promised Cupcakes from Magnolia Bakery * We had almost 100 ppl in attendance * We had enough cupcakes to go around (thanks to Kim Truong from Horton marketing) * Mortar Data will continue to organize NYC meetups, and we'll continue to sponsor those as well Russell Jurney twitter.com/rjurney On Oct 26, 2012, at 2:54 PM, Jonathan Coveney <jcove...@gmail.com> wrote: > I am told that the turnout was really good, and that it was generally high > quality. > > I'm curious, for the people who were there, if there were any salient > themes from the people there that would require development effort.
