I think we're just too busy, I strongly wanted to attend but I was 
caught in the aftermath of our workshop.
In general, perhaps there are too many things going on at the same time? 
  For example, the schedule does not take into account the fact that 
people have to meet before workshops to prepare them, prepare reports 
after them, etc... and then also move back and forth from hotels that 
are 30-45 mins away, which doesn't encourage to be here from 8:30 to 
19:30. Since the IGF started, I barely managed to pop into a few 
workshops for 15 minutes each, nothing more.
I'm possibly busier than usual and maybe there's nothing that can be 
done about this, but each of us should take note of possible suggestions 
for next year: I'm starting to note (or get reports of) several open 
slots and poorly organized / poorly attended workshops, and perhaps 
there could be less of them, but with a higher attendance and significance.
