My recollection of some of the IGF consultation meetings in year 4, and 
especially year 5, was that from a very large room full of a thousand 
people it had dwindled to something like "half the MAG, other people 
also appointed to moderate main sessions, plus a couple of dozen 
others".

Just from a mathematical point of view, if you exclude anyone who failed 
to attend *any one* such meeting, the remainder who attended *every 
single one* has to be quite a small number.
