Hi!
I agree on food management, the queues were insanely long, esp. at the beach and after half an hour of queuing, we learnt there was no food left, so we went to a nearby restaurant... the venue was too tiny for so many people. If i can have a request for London, I would say, please make sure people don't have to queue for food for hours.
Otherwise everything was done well, some minor things came up, like some popular seminars had tiny lecture rooms, while other less popular ones were put in large auditoriums. Perhaps a poll on attendance could be done next time. People indicated interest on the wiki page, but it looks like this was not considered.
The dorm was good, despite being far from the nearest mtr. The volunteers were very friebdky and helpful, thank you guys once again.
Overall, I had a good time at my first wikimania,
Kind regards Teemeah

Otherwise, bye and thanks for all the fish.
Adding to that: More food and better management about expectations. If I would have known the beach party wouldn't have enough food and the only food the have was deep fried junk food, I would have gone out for dinner early and join the beach party a bit later. Insisting that more food is coming and than coming up with small bowls of deepfried crap wasn't useful at all.
