Great event with good speakers. Excellent starting point, but I believe there is space to improve. Good coverage of technical aspects but lack of discussion on management and organization. Audience could be involved more with some kind of workshops and so on. Probably those should be separate events: organization oriented, practices oriented, workshops, free talks, etc.

This was fun, need to do it again! I'd prefer more of specific case studies, war stories, etc. - as opposed to general thoughts and theoretical discussions, which prevailed this time.

For the first time - very good event. For further events I would appreciate more specific or detailed information about Agile practices and methods. Also suggestion - If it's acceptable to audience presentations and discussions should occur in speakers native language (latvian, russian), for guest speakers - english. Sometimes presentations were not so "smooth" because of language.

I liked intro from Alek about how things are going in Estonia with agile. I'm manager and topics didn't cover my interests in full scope, but anyway was interesting to listen. Responsibility is good, unit tests, yes, required for programmers, but it is not my field, TDD - also is meaningful for CTOs and technical staff. Would attend PO and SCRUM master course if it will take place in Latvia.

This was useful. For me the main finding was that a personal responsibility of each team member is a critical precondition for agile to work.

Recap: agile is being responsible as a team (even if distributed) about the quickly and often delivered product and backing your words with tests. :)

Organization and content was very good, looking forward to next event.

That was nice.

Very good first step for Agile popularisation in Latvia.

Most of presentations was useful. Maybe next time it's not important, to make all presentations in English, because language aspect for some of presenters (and attenders too) makes some inconvenience.

It was interesting for me find out that I'm team member of separated team :-). I liked "Distributed Team" presentation - it is helpful for me

I was really excited with organization quality and homelike atmosphere. Well done!

I liked the presentations held during the evening. It's nice that content varied from technical to almost philosophical. Q&A sessions where as interesting as the topics, and with the surplus of questions the organizers did a great job of staying within the time frame. A big thanks to them. Personally, for someone who had no practical experience it was a great experience to get the knowledge vicariously, from someone who already had done it before and knew what he was speaking about. What I didnt get from this meetup is, if someone could share real life (a real case study if possible) agile implementation/usage in various situations, e.g. a company that develops and delivers one or more products and continuously improves it vs what was already spoken about - a contractual basis. But this is probably oustide of the subject of thoughts and feedback about the evening. The evening was really great, again thanks to the organizers and participants! *10000 lines of code done

The meeting was wonderful. It was great to see that there are people doing wonderful things with Agile. Especially I loved the "Distributed Scrum" presentation :) That was something I should have tried out :)

Great meeting, interesting presentations, nice people & place. Actually I'm very excited and awaiting for the next @agilelatvia meetup. Hopefully some sort of monthly events will be organised. It's a shame I didn't make for the afterparty though. Hope will be ready for next time to discuss agile-related topics for a couple of beers :)

In whole it was nice, The presentation about where Agile can be usedd, and examples where it was used were not very interesting, since it can be used in a lots of places in different variations, also presentation about Myths was strange (did not understand it), but rest presentations, especially about responsibility and Testing were great. Also since some people still were new to Agile (maybe), it would be nice to tell a bit about standard Practices that are used in Agile (we have covered some of them) and also you could shown to us an 1 Iteration of how Agile is used (Where goes User Stories, where Estimates/Design etc..) as example.
