Retrospective
This is a retrospective on the All-Hands Meeting last week with the aim to improve on the next All-Hand meeting. Please note what you liked and did not like about the meeting, what you would like to see improved, where did you feel like there was not enough time or if there was too much time spend on something, or maybe something did not get covered that you would like to see added to the next meeting.
If you are agreeing with the statement already here, just add '+1' at the end of a statement, so we have an approximate count on how many votes are for a particular item.

What did we do well? |
The 'speed-dating sessions, ie pairing the different groups, were helpful. +67
- The sessions focusing on the 3 simulations were important. +1
- The group meeting sessions were also important. +1
- The poster templates were very helpful and sped-up the poster-making process. +3
- The AMIP progress summary session was helpful in that it let a large number of people know about what had actually been done and what was to be done in a live execution of the workflow.

What should we have done better? |
- I would have liked there to be more free time (longer breaks/lunches/dinners) which could be used for one-on-one conversations with people. +56
- More time for the 'speed dating'. +12
- The oral presentations of posters were fine, however a '1-minute madness' for all the posters might be even better next time. +2
- Opposite to point above: never found oral presentations of posters particularly helpful, since there are abstracts to guide people around. Seems like a simple introduction of all posters and how they are separated in the different groups (atmosphere, ocean-ice, etc) should be enough.
- The poster templates were helpful, and gave a good look to the meeting, but it would be helpful to reduce the size of the embedded graphics. +1
- Sessions on 3 simulations should not be parallel, since people may be involved or have an interest in more than one simulation.
