I think Charles is being generous here. I was also at this workshop. My initial understanding of the workshop was that there would be far more opportunity for attendees to input into what they considered to be important directions to research. Instead we had a series of presentations by researchers reviewing their work - useful perhaps to anybody new to the field. I personally consider my energy and time expended preparing and attending to have been wasted.
Is that 'important directions' and, I'm also hoping 'future directions' aspect going to be covered at some point?
It seems pretty key given [lack of] strategy has been one important part of getting somewhere different to where we've been in the past surely?
