I thought this might be a good place to post some occassional updates on how things are going for the symposium.

There are currently 374 people registered for the symposium representing 71 countries.

The amazing part is that there have been around 700 people registered at this time the last couple of years, but just about the same number of countries represented.

An interesting new issue this year is the number of cancellations. There are usually a couple each year, but there have been 21 so far this year.

A slightly disturbing stat is that only about 1/3 of the registrants have paid so far.

Let me know if there are any other numbers you would like to see.
