• Good experience 5 days most of ACS architecture was reviewed
• They feel they can rely on ACS framework
• Hello everyone, sorry for not replying during the round table. I wanna thank all instructors and speakers for managing to organize this really interesting workshop. These have been my first steps with the ACS framework but after 5 days I can say I already learnt enough about it. I think that the documentation on the website is well done and that it will be useful in the future too, along with the recordings. I also found interesting the projects presentations (CTA, LLAMA, UFRO). And of course I liked a lot the project we tried to develop and I enjoyed collaborating with my group mates. Thanks again!

• Impressed by the organization considering the large number of participants
• Professional, responsive and good material
• Diverse level of experience between participants and members of each group
• Some people even wants to re-do the components on their own

• Engineering department from ALMA, who has a good system overview, but lacked detailed information on ACS
• Usually closer to the instruments and hardware, so now there's a better picture having a bit of knowledge on the software
• More direct approach rather than abstract, due to their nature, but happy to see where hardware and software finally meet
• Liked the presentations and topics, and also the other projects presentations (CTA, LLAMA and UFRO)
• Maybe use old workshop repositories to use as material for future workshops

• get the initial setup correct (INTROOT, awv repo and components, CDB). The follow along sessions were a great help with that

• Because the workshop materials were large (8GB) and only available the night before the workshop, the first day was a distracting scramble to get everybody set up. Appreciate the work that went into preparing those materials, and the quality of the result

  Very well organized, although a slow start which seemed to be lack of organization, but then it all came together to feel well organized

• A lot of background and examples to know how to do in an actual implementation
• Following along practical sessions was really useful
• No ACS knowledge at the beginning and now I'm able to prepare a small distributed program, so it's a good result

• I want thank everyone, but specially thank t he idea of making ACS a community product and for the organization of the workshop and all institutions that are involved
