But, as Chennaipy, we could help funnel this feedback to them? Having
one tool to consolidate feedback would definitely be more productive
than expecting each one of the speakers to use their own? The latter
would cause some amount of confusion, I'm sure.

My idea is this:
Publish a URL at the end of every meetup, something like
tinyurl.com/feedback-cpy-201709 where, per talk, we could have a few
simple questions rated on 1 - 5 and an open text to provide more
feedback. The collated results, we could then share with the speakers
individually.

The URL is to be shared to only participants of the meetup. Sharing it
on the mailing list / meetup page would skew the results and might end
up in bogus entries as well.

Thoughts?

I agree with all these
