Re: IETF Attendance by continent

1/1/2 comes closer to 1/1/1.7 than 1/1/1.

Hmm... folding Australia into Asia, Africa into Europe and S America into N America (for discussion purposes only) that's roughly

1/1/1.7 as a ratio. (Asia/Europe/NA).  Or 4/4/7.

It will be interesting to see what the other runs of the data show.

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,
Donald

    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.
