It just occured to me we stopped asking for feedback from attendees. IMHO 
feedback is important not just for organizers but for the speakers too.

As always there are ton of channels for feedback like mailing 
list/twitter/meetup, but people refrain somehow since it's not anonymous. But 
also, we never explicitly asked for feedback.

Let's do that.
I agree here. This is something that we haven't done and we can start
doing it. Google forms is IMO the simplest form of getting feedback
from the attendees.

If the feedback is about how better to organize Chennaipy events, it will be useful to us (the organizers). But if the feedback is about the talk, then it will be useful only for the speaker. It would be better for the speaker to ask for feedback (if needed), in that case.

The bottom line is the talk selection will always be on a FCFS basis.

He are some areas that we can work on to improve talk quality.

 * Ask the speakers to submit slides 3 days before the event. (We used
   to do that.) The idea is to ensure that the speakers is prepared
   well ahead of the event.
 * Better timekeeping during the event. Ensure that the talks do not
   spillover the 20 min slot.
 * Request speakers to rehearse their talks.

Regards,
Vijay
