That was a great read. Thanks for the link. I'll be passing it on.

I am reading this thread about women in open source having just seen
Kirrily Robert give an *excellent* keynote about this topic at ZendCon
yesterday morning. I can't find the slides but I think it's the same
presentation she gave at OSCON called Standing out in the Crowd:

I highly recommend you check it out. She's a great presenter and the
material was very good.

I did the same thing . . . but the thing that tipped me off first was
the large percentage of females in the room. I guess that's an
unfortunate reflection of the composition of the open source
community, but a fact nonetheless.

Thanks for the signage Sam! It was very helpful. So good in fact, I was a
little early and barged into a marked room with a gaggle of people huddling
around a computer. SOMETHING told me that it wasn't a VAGUE meeting . . .
aside from the time, might have been the absence of netbooks or lack of
facial hair. Dunno.

Park in the Visitor Lot on the south side of College Street (just downhill
of where College intersects South Prospect Street). Enter Waterman building
via the green doors on the south side of the building (across College from
that parking lot). You'll be in a lobby. At the left end of the opposite
wall (left of the water fountain) is a door leading to stairs. Take the
stairs down one level and enter the lab via the door in front of you.
Straight ahead about 10m is a door labeled "113-Q". That's the PC Lab in
question. I'll try to put up some signage beforehand.

In case I can't read the huge neon signage that will be pointing me in
the right direction . . .
Where is the PC lab? Floor? Entrance to take? Left? Right? Elevator?
Help Desk?

presentation,
what pub will we be meeting at after?
Let's say … American Flatbread.
