The map of the registered attendees was produced using the R software environment for statistics and graphics.

Here is the code to produce a PNG file (you need the "maps" package installed):

countries <- c('Antarctica', 'Australia','Bangladesh','Belgium','Brazil','Canada','Colombia','Denmark', 'Germany', 'Greenland', 'Iran','India','Indonesia','Italy','Japan','Lebanon','Mexico','New Zealand','Nigeria','Senegal','Spain','Sweden', 'UK','Ukraine','USA')
colors <- rep('blue', length(countries))

png(width=600, height=320, "attendees.png")
par(cex=0.7)
