I did stay around after the first week because I felt like I was really 
helping out and making a difference.  I also felt like my reports were 
actually being read and taken seriously which feels good.

I didn't actually leave, but I regret that I was not as faithful as I 
would have like to have been for the past few weeks.  I could have 
planned better from the beginning.  You see my test box is my main 
production server at home and sometimes it is difficult to find a time 
where it is not providing internet, file, and print sharing to other 
boxes in the house so it could be rebooted to the lucid partition for 
testing.  Sorry about that.

I liked being able to make a contribution without having any coding or 
translating ability.  It was also cool to rub elbows with real ubuntu 
developers (who actually appeared to be nice guys.)

Cannot think of any improvements at the moments.  It was run very well.  
The developers were accessible and available for questions, input, and 
advice.

Not at this time.  Frankly I was not able to devote a sufficient amount 
of time to this.  I am, however, helping to organize a release party.
