AIUI, there were around 550+ registrants.  We handed out almost all the
media that we had, I would say around 100-150 discs total.  I know of at
least three people that I signed up who are skilled folks that have the
ability to make some immediate contributions.  I'm regularly in touch
with one of them now.  More would have been nice, but given the
demographics of the attendee I feel we did pretty well, especially deep
in Novell land! ;-)
