Assuming the very simple model that attendance consists of a fixed number of
constant attendees from each continent plus a "continentally local" variable
number that only show up when the IETF meets on their continent and using
the very limited data provided, using a rough least squares fit I get the
following:
Constant Attendees
Africa 6 Asia 236 Europe 254 N.America 409 Australia 14 S.America 8
Continentally Local Attendees
Asia 333 Europe 173 N.America 232
Thanks,

During my IAOC chair plenary talk at IETF78 (slides are in the proceedings)
I asked a question about continuing the current meeting policy (3 in North
America, 2 in Europe, 1 in Asia in two year period (3-2-1) ) or changing to
a 1-1-1 policy based on current meeting attendance. The talk included a
graph of attendance by continent for IETF72-IETF78. I was asked to provide
this data to the community.
It is attached. It includes the raw data and a new graph that shows
attendance by percentage. It appears to me that a 1-1-1 meeting policy is
justified by current overall IETF meeting attendance.
Your comments are appreciated.
Bob
