Looking back at the proceedings of Usenix '84, the first time I was on a program committee (https://archive.org/details/1984-proceedings-summer-salt-lake-city/page/n3/mode/2up). There were two program co-chairs and four PC members… This year, Usenix Security has >400 people on its PC. ( @lauren@mastodon.laurenweinstein.org, I see that you were at that conference, too.)

@SteveBellovin@infosec.exchange @lauren@mastodon.laurenweinstein.org the odd part for me is that we went from 50 PC members to 400 in just a few years. The explosion is certainly accelerating
