I was on call yesterday and it was a royal PITA, so I didn't get to
participate in any of the online discussions. How did things go
yesterday?

Here in Ann Arbor, things went really, really well. We had about 65 people show up to what we billed as an "unconference".  We had four 30min sessions with 4 breakout groups (10 minute breaks between sessions) with a variety of themes discussed: You can see the list of topics discussed on the wiki: http://openeverything.wik.is/Ann_Arbor/Discussion  The conversation in each group was fantastic and hard to stop - definitely a good sign. Upon leaving, people commented that they had a great time and that they can't wait until the next event. Most of the evening's success is a result of the wonderful people who attended, but good food and a good space definitely had a hand in the overall excitement.

curious to hear how other events / gatherings went.
