Afterwords

Organizer notes / questions / answers / observations after the fact.

  • On day 1 we maxed out the capacity around one table for intro sessions with ~10 people. We may want to cap any future IndieWebCamps at this venue at 10 confirmed participants. - Tantek Çelik 10:08, 26 December 2023 (PST)
    • In reference to question beforehand for organizers: should we cap sign-ups? What is our approximate venue limit for the Bakery? 8? 10? 12? [Joe_Crawford] GWG [tantek]
