AUSTIN SESSION FEEDBACK
During the OpenStack Summit in Austin we did not receive as many
sessions ratings as we'd have liked via the mobile app. Here’s another
chance to provide feedback to speakers. You'll find that the session
list is based on your personal schedule. If you didn't attend one of the
sessions listed, just skip it. We will also be improving the in-app
feedback mechanism for future Summits. Please note that all feedback
will be publicly viewable including your name. Click here
<https://www.openstack.org/summit/austin-2016/review>to rate the Summit
sessions that you attended in Austin.
If you have any general Summit questions, contact us at
