Personally, I don't think simply attending an event is enough to earn credit. I feel like that leads to credit inflation. Organizing, speaking, and sponsoring are genuine contributions. It will create a lot of overhead for event organizers to track and enter general attendance. Curious to hear what others think about this.
There is another feature request for sign-ups ✨ Add support for simple signups to community events Active . Possibly these two features could converge. Attendees can self-sign up for events, removing the effort from organizers. But then you can't guarantee the person did attend, so it might be an unreliable way to assign credit.

Organizers are never required to issue credit. I think having the option is good.
I think there's value created for the community in attending an event and in causing attendees to engage with Drupal.org, but (to @heatherwoz's concern about credit inflation) I don't think doing so should result in significant issue credit being received. What if the weighting for such credits were 10% of normal or something like that?
Perhaps ✨ Add support for simple signups to community events Active could somehow seed a list of people "maybe attended", which an organizer could then confirm for each attendee without the extra work of collecting usernames?
