This table is somewhat redundant with [http://mnstf.org/minicon/history/minicon_history.html].  However, it would be useful to have a place where we list more internal details about previous Minicons, like who ran various departments.  Let's use this for that.  In particular, let's '''not''' use this for membership totals, which are correct on the aforementioned page, and not here.
This table lists historical details about Minicon particularly interesting for people trying to run Minicon.  For a historical table with a different bent, see [http://mnstf.org/minicon/].  Please don't add columns here that also appear there (except for year and Minicon number).
