39C3 is over. Sadly. We hope that your journey home went well and that you had a good return to reality.

But many other things can be! That is why we want to ask for your feedback. Let us know what you liked, but also what you didn’t like. We appreciate both praise and constructive suggestions for improvement! But you need to be …
