        And our rather noisy Boston [pm.org] mailing list is shown as having 300 members and 0 posts per day. (And doesn't mention sometimes-social meetings.)

        No poll / census is a perfect reflection of reallity -- the Map is not the territory.

        But yes, it is funny that the last two YAPC::EU's have been run by groups with (reportedly) no members.

        Well actually it says that those groups have mailing lists with no members. Which isn't quite the same as saying that the groups have no members. But obviously a mailing list with no members seems a little pointless and you'd generally expect most of the group members to be on the mailing list.

        I deliberately didn't ask the group leaders how many actual members they had. Largely because from experiences with london.pm I know what a tricky concept membership can be :)
