Not sure if you're meaning this for Thiago or me, but I wasn't.  So my
impressions are purely from people's reports of the event.  But it was
my understanding that the meeting was more of a working group around
existing specs, and less about presentations about thing that different
people are working on.  I think that largely seeing the cool ways people
are solving perhaps overlapping problems could lead to new
collaborations, which I'd love to see.
