At least until the reconfirmation period. Fair point. If I exclude those who have the default arrival time set, this brings the number of sponsored attendees on 2014-08-22 down to 52. We certainly won't be committing to rooms/meals with the university until after the reconfirmation period, and you're right that the number of people listed as arriving on the 22nd is likely to decrease by the reconfirmation period. -- Steve Langasek Give me a lever long enough and a Free OS Debian Developer to set it on, and I can move the world.
