     I will send periodic updates on the number of people who registered, and
     talks.
     
     At this point, there are 6 subscribers.


This is the usual paradox organising something like GHM: 

Nobody wants to commit themselves to going, until they know that
enough people are going to be sure that the event will happen.

On the other hand, usually people will commit to going if you threaten
to cancel the event a few weeks before it's scheduled.

Consequently, very few people register until just before the event
happens.
