Sorry for this very straight forward and honest feedback. As you both know, I was die to enroll and participate in the 101 New Contributor Workshop with the only hope of hands-on learning and workshop. I love and like Chris Short very much. This feedback is no offense against him. But to be frank, the yesterday’s whole day’s 101 New Contributors workshop session is a big mess and the whole workshop is not what I have expected and hoped for. I was expecting and hoping a the whole workshop session - a hands on workshop session not ‘just’ reading the slides session. Chris was just reading and reading the slides. I was looking more technical beginner session. Over all its a not a useful day or session or workshop. only disappointment me. The biggest disappointment in over all it was not well prepared and organized flow of presentation. ( The Conf Wifi is also another issue. ) For Amsterdam EU KubeCon, please please kindly arrange better and hand-on person for 101 New Contributor Workshop. I have a lot more feedback to add. I feel that there are lot of gaps, issues and opportunities here and I’m willing to offer help and do better in Amsterdam KubeCon. Again, I’m giving the constructive feedback to improve this contributor summit and event better and worthwhile. I think a lot to give this feedback. because I just want to give “any” feedback .. I want to give a feedback to improve.	I enjoyed collaborating with other new contributors	meeting all the contributors, learn from contributors.	101 New Contributors workshop session is a big mess and the whole workshop is not what I have expected and hoped for.
