I presented at NANOG42.  After answering several individual questions 
off-podium, and getting kicked out of the room (gee, that wasn't nice), 
Todd provided some timely feedback (with good detail) on my presentation.

Context?  Let's see if that commentary makes it into the survey.  If it 
does, great.  If it doesn't, we have at least one datapoint that 
indicates that hallway polling is beneficial feedback which is not being 
captured (offered?) into the surveys.

Any ideas on how to achieve that?  Only thing I can think of is a PC 
post-conference review of the talks that were accepted and a comparison 
to the PC's opinions and comments of the slide presentations submitted.

(Interesting observations come to mind though: ex-MLC members have told 
me to 'put up or shut up' when trying to discuss how continental borders 
should influence on/off-topicness, but now a current (last I checked) 
MLC member thinks "we" should figure out how to police the talks.  Such 
a varied group are we.)
