Nope, doesn't. Attendence records, where available, were used to seed
the database, but any email address that was already in there wasn't
marked as having been so, and I don't have the files anymore. That was
as much as was generally understood was going to happen with email
addresses collected, and changing it at this point would ethically
require starting over with a fresh list.

The lack of records is kind of an issue for that, unless we take
people's word as to how many were attended.
