Thanks Izumi.
I think we've heard quite a lot of comments about the lack of
participation from developing countries (China's submission for
example.) Participation's clearly dependent on location of the
meeting, Vilnius strongly favored West and Eastern Europe sure,
Hyderabad saw a high percentage from the host country.

Can't find for Athens, must be somewhere.
Participation from developing countries needs to be encouraged and
supported, but stats we have seem to suggest there is participation
from most regions (Latin American low). But the information's
lacking, unless someone wished to go through the list of attendees
country by country.
And I hope government of Canada's support for developing country
participation will be acknowledged and Canada thanked.
