Note also, that some presentations must have been missed in the
reports. (Actually, it is mostly thanks to Ted that there are so many
attendance reports.) I know, for example that Andy Bair gave more than
one presentation, and the one I attended had 12 people or

and then dropped a few SQL statements, and copy/pasted them into VIM again.

Even better, could that table get at

Nice job, David Berube!
An additional dimension to map is the attendance against some

I don't think these statistics are accurate. I know I had more than 0
people at the presentation which I gave in 2007. Are these stats only
for 2008?
As far as 2008, that's in the future, which has
The Python Special Interest Group took up the gauntlet thrown down by
Jim Kuzdrall and came up with code that would parse the TWiki pages of
attendance figures and produce a comma-separated-value text file.
On the page PastEvents [1], you'll see links for 'CSV format' next to
the calendar years.

1) higher attendance percentage:
Assuming that subject matter and level of the presentations is the
primary draw, how do we find topics that appeal to a wider range of the
contact group? Do you ask those who attend regularly, as we did at the
MerriLUG meeting?
I'm not sure looking for more attendance at meetings should be a
significant goal for GNHLUG.
The reason people go to a meeting is to meet new and different people
which (hopefully) share the same interests as you. The number of reasons
