[gnome-women] IRC meeting about a new women outreach program

[Marina Zhurakhinskaya <marinaz redhat com>]

Hi all,

We are going to hold the first IRC meeting about a new women outreach program today (Thursday) at 2pm EST on #gnome-women on irc.gnome.org

We are planning to discuss:
* what was learned from running the program in 2006
* format for this years program
* search for mentors
* fundraising for this years program
* any ideas you have about the program or about increasing participation of women in GNOME

The updated page with ideas about the program is here:

In particular, it contains a link to the comments that one of the organizers of the program in 2006, Chris Ball, had about the program:

Please join the IRC meeting if you can or share any thoughts on the mailing list.

Thanks,
Marina
