Yes, free (or with a nominal fee, like 10 EUR) events used to be the norm.

I'm talking about working as a project within the ASF. Some of the
discussion at the first community event seemed to revolve around
misunderstanding aspects of hownthe ASF works. ApacheCons are an ideal
place to resolve issues. But as a new ASF project AOO might not have had
the benefit.

Let's ask Andrea et al to
I still think you are missing my point. I would like to know if AOO people
found the event useful in learning about the ASF, hence my original
observation "You missed how useful was it in learning about the ASF"
I'm really not sure what you think I'm saying but your responses are really
confusing
I agree with your thoughts.
Except there is a lot of ocean between those events, I intent to visit
FOSDEM but being located where I am NA is not a possibility.
I might be wrong, but it seems comparing apples with oranges (a danish
expression) when you compare FOSDEM and apacheCON. I thought FOSDE

Let's see how many responses we get. I see it as prompting a
discussion on priorities and what we get out of various kinds of
events. If numbers help then well

Sorry Rob, I for one think you are doing the right thing collecting
experience after a conference !!
Instead of apacheCON just being what it is, you try to collect information
which we can use be be better in the future +1 for that !

I'll second what Ross has to say.
There are huge synergies that can happen between Apache projects and often
these are facilitated by the interactions between people who meet at Apachecon.
Over time projects become dependencies of other projects in very powerful ways.
One example is Apache Tika
Sure, my point is that what people did do is not necessarily representative

I looked deeply into my pocket for apacheCon, but found it very expensive,

We have FOSDEM upcomming in europe, and many like me, may be questioning,

Ross, this isn't a "what if" survey based on what attendees might have
done, but didn't. I'm interesting in their actual experiences. But
feel free to add a relevant additional question if you feel one is
missing.

You missed how useful was it in learning about the ASF
The problem is that the answers depend on how one approached the event. If
an individual only attended the AOO track then one would not benefit from
the community track or other project specific tracks for example.
