Comment (by mukesh27):

 @hlashbrooke thank you for your thoughts.

 > I can say with a fair amount of certainty that we won't be adding a
 WordCamp attendee badge at any point - as @Kenshino says, the badges are
 for contributions to the WordPress project, and attending a WordCamp isn't
 exactly a contribution.
 >
 > There is definitely room for a WordCamp Volunteer badge though - the
 main blocker to making that a possibility is having a realistic and
 reliable way of tracking who is volunteering at a WordCamp (and actually
 showing up for the work they have committed to doing. If we can work that
 out, then we can certainly look at adding a new badge for it.
