Assuming the very simple model that attendance consists of a fixed number of constant attendees from each continent plus a "continentally local" variable number that only show up when the IETF meets on their continent and using the very limited data provided, using a rough least squares fit I get the following:
Constant Attendees Africa 6 Asia 236 Europe 254 N.America 409 Australia 14 S.America 8 Continentally Local Attendees Asia 333 Europe 173 N.America 232 Thanks, Donald ================== Donald E.
