An example: I ran a keysigning for PLUG about 4-5 years ago and we got a total 
of 5 people - two of which included myself and my wife.  I was away for a 
couple of years between then and now but I don't think there has been an 
attempt at another keysigning in Perth since.

I know I've stopped updating my keys.  Seems little point if nobody is using 
them.
