Feedback on the "beta review day"

The day was worthwhile - we got 3 or 4 new people involved.

Mostly the day ended up being users with specific bugs that only they had,
and us using the real-time chat and having time set aside to get on with
fixing things quicker than we could have done on bugzilla.
Not what I had really imagined for the day to be, but not a bad use either.

Things also seemed to go better when I said "I need someone to test blah"
it got more response than keeping things vague. Next time a bunch of those
upfront would help.

Overall I wasn't super impressed with the turnout. Maybe Thursday isn't a
good day? I had expected a bunch of people in the evening, but that didn't
materialise. In hindsight I should have done some more on-the-day promo
too. None of the new people turned on their mics/webcams and just used the
chat, I thought BBB might make it more social, but maybe it just made
things pressuring and awkward?

I think it is worth trying again but only with some adjustments.
