About these numbers
Everything here is counted from this calendar: the events I have listed, the speakers and venues named on them, and the ones I turned up to myself. Nothing is estimated and nothing comes from a third party.
There are no attendance figures, because I do not run these events and I am not going to publish a guess as a head count. Registration counts on Eventbrite, Meetup and Luma are not attendance either, so I do not use them. If a number ever comes from an organiser, it will say so.
I am not yet counting how many separate organisations run these events. The organiser names on older listings are not tidy enough to count without overstating it, so that number stays off this page until it is right.
