PS.: The eduroam number also provide a nice estimate of the number of academics attending.
Of course, there may be a couple people who laboriously configure the WiFi for IETF before noticing they already had been connected, and there may still be a few academics coming from eduroam-challenged institutions.  But overall, this is a nice indicator.
