I'd be up for a chat session and could rope Vincenzo into the call too
since I'll be at the Bolzano sprint this week.

We have #'s from the eventbrite.com site, a paper sign in sheet, and a
surveymonkey.com survey that has responses to your questions.

If folks have properly tagged them with "worldploneday2008" they
should show up at http://technorati.com/tag/worldploneday2008

We were fortunate to have $100 in food/drink donated by Wingware. They
also donated 3 licenses to their WingIDE Pro software as giveaways
($395/each value!) and some really cool balsa airplanes. Thanks Stephan!

We had all the attendees compete for prizes (t-shirts and books) with
an airplane toss which was a lot of fun. See photos here:

Yes, we definitely need to notify the Python and Zope foundations to
see if they can help with promotion. We know better for next time.

Yeah, I recommend making a lessons learned from WPD2008 page in the
Plone-marketing area on openplans.org.

Thanks,
