MediaWiki Developer Summit 2015/Lessons learned

This page is a work in progress - lessons are a combination of feedback from a survey sent to participants and ideas from the organizers.

In order to be useful, this page will focus on improvements to be made for next time and things that went poorly. However remember that 95% of the people that responded to the feedback survey were either "Satisfied" or "Very Satisfied" with the event as a whole.
