Regardless of how many (or few) signatures are required, I really don't
think it makes sense any more to use meeting attendance (physical or
virtual) as a criterion for who can sign a petition [*]. I think it
should be some measure of how much a person actually has invested in
helping IETF do work, say by writing or reviewing documents, chairing a
WG, serving on a directorate, IESG, IAB, etc. Those are the people who
are in the best position to evaluate a recall petition. IETF should
pay more attention to doers than goers.
Maybe we should only require 3 such people, but let them be people who
do work.

[*] I'd make a similar argument for nomcom eligibility.
