I posted here that we as a community need to wait for 90 days for the management of the Boston show to issued a final report on Boston .Have they said anything yet or do we need to slap someone .
Even if there is a few financial pending matters ,that can be footnoted as such on a report . I truely believe people here would like a summary of attendance ,sales and final results. Please don't tell me that the dealers did well that means nothing to a dealer like me who at local bourses where the event was dead but leaving the show, telling others things were ok .

Where is the outrage on this board ?"
You need to get out more often. It has been reported on 2 other boards that the attendance was 20,017 individuals (number of people who registered, not counts of people each time they entered the show). NY2016 was 23,017.
I don't view it as something worth getting outraged about...but I'm just a plain old collector who didn't have the opportunity to attend Boston 2026. Hopefully the show organizers will release the other information you're looking for soon!
As they should. Before the show opened it was clearly affected by certain political issues and events, and it was impossible to discuss it without mentioning them. It was not the fault of any posters that some here didn't like being reminded of that. And frankly, it was illogical in many cases to have expected anything different under the circumstances. Now the show is over, and it created its own drama, which is ethical rather than political. Unfortunately there is apparently nothing that can be done about it. So five people got shafted.
I am sure the organizers are not going to try to expound on any negative aspect because the work now begins on the next international (selection, fund raising, planning, etc). Efforts should be on more smaller shows that do not depend on expensive convention centers, etc.
It would be interesting to know how many non-collectors that attended become and continued to be stamp collectors.
