Well, I have has fairly decent response from Australia/New Zealand, but
a get a better response form westarn Europe and Canada.  The response from
USA is by far the best. Not much response from the Far East, ond only a
handful of registrations from South America and Africa.  Nothing
whatsoever from eastern Europe - perhaps not surprising.
