This will just be an informal gathering of the women who make it to Drupalcon: the Drupalchix (also known as the "7% club" ;)).

We did this in Barcelona and Boston, and it was awesome. :D

Topics might include things like:
* What are our various backgrounds/experiences prior to coming to Drupal?
* What is it that we’re currently working on?
* What have our experiences in the community been like?
* What can we do to encourage more women in open source/Drupal specifically?

Overview

The Knight Drupal Initiative (KDI) is an ongoing, open grant funding process for the Drupal open source project. We want to enable more people to enter the digital conversation by lowering the technical barriers to entry. We will provide powerful tools for digital publication, free and open to all. Our goal is to encourage people to improve their communities by supporting the free exchange of information and ideas.
