I thought the meeting was a success.   The venue worked well, it had lots of places to sit down, easily accessible coffee, the main hotel was very close , nice city with many places to eat close by.   

It was a very long expensive trip even for me leaving from San Francisco.   

I got a lot of value having it being a face to face meeting.  Many conversations in the hallways and at breakfast.   In fact, I had some nice discussions at breakfast with people I knew but don’t see often, and with some people who I had not meet before.   None of these would happen if the meetings was all online.
