Great! It was very relevant to my experience and helped me as a developer.

Informative, but didn't directly apply to my experience. At least not right now, but it still got me thinking.

I got it, sort of, but had no immediate way to connect it to my current work.

The content discussed seemed way beyond my knowledge and made me feel isolated.

The travel time required is too long

The meeting venue isn't to my liking

The meeting day or time (Saturday @ 2:30pm) does not fit with my schedule

I'm self-conscious in my level of PHP knowledge and am afraid of how I'll be perceived by other attendees

I don't know anyone in the group and am reluctant to come by myself
