General

 * I have not been there, and would like to read some in depth experiences and I want to see the video coverages. --Fverhart 17:41, 13 August 2008 (CEST)
 * For the documentary project, informations about the process are there Link, but maybe someone have taken some videos with his camera ? You can also put them in link or on the page Misha 0:01, 13 August 2008 (CEST)
 * Seemed like a fun idea, and I had fun participating, but a little too organised for me, so only joined friday night
 * don't forget that we were all organisers, no one was saying to the other to do something, on saturday workshops were in Openspace organisation and a lot of hitchhikers really know to drive their life themselves so what do you mean by too much organisation ? MiSha 09:09, 25 August 2008 (CEST)


 * I think some accordingly used garbage bags would improve our reputation a lot and save us from cleaning up at 5am because cops don't want the place to look like a wast disposal site. I don't think we're all antisocial punks, it's just that we should take care of garbage from the party's beginning - Ben
 * mind, that once or twice a day we were getting many rubbish bags. It is not a problem. The problem was lack of motivation and not economical use of bags. Mirto

Location

 * At first I wasnt for, but it turned out to be great! Waking up and seing Tour Eiffel - what can you have better?
 * we need to prepare something if it's rain next time we were lucky xo 20:59, 16 August 2008 (CEST)
 * Not too far away, great sight, but incredibly expensive city
 * For french people, the place wasn't so new, but when we were seen all the people smiling about we understand what they feel about this place ! MiSha 09:12, 25 August 2008 (CEST)

Workshops
Great ideas, unfortunately too few could be executed.

Still it was more a "karma" exchange than anything. I learned how to make a stove with a cola can but that's pretty much it. On the other hand, I'm much more enclined to hitch the world now than before. Sitarane

I liked the Open Space style and believe we should take a similar approach next time as well. -Ben

Food

 * It was great to see how people were contributing to organising the food. It was all very spontaneous and turned out pretty well. --Robino 20:53, 12 August 2008 (CEST)
 * A little bite disappointed about the disinfected food of the supermarket because in my land we find better for cheaper, but we were in Paris, it's normal --Misha 23:23, 13 August 2008 (CEST)
 * so maybe next time a local person could offer his help to go shopping ;) Mirto (sorry Sitarane!)
