[Kde-women] KDE women meeting

[Anke Leiber]

Hi! 
After reading all these mails I would say it's a very good idea to have a kde women 
meeting. I'm from Germany and I certainly would try to participate. I think it'll be 
very hard to manage that everyone can come but I hope it will not be like a one time 
only meeting so that everyone who wants to gets a chance to come sometime.  
For me it could get a little complicated to participate next summer because I can't 
just skip school and in the holidays I'll be somewhere in the wilderness of Canada not 
even having any internet connection for some weeks. But I'll certainly try to arrange 
something so that it may work out. 
Greetings, 
Anke

Sure, but  I think there are a few women who want to participate at both  
events and want to do workshops from the conference 
and workshops from the kde-women meeting.

That's true , they don't bite. I never would say that. Because I am  
engaged with one,so I think I know that quite 
good. But I don't  know why to make a kde-women meeting at the same time  
and location as the conference, because a kde-women 
meeting isn't the same as the conference. But I think we could also do a  
workshop or talks at the conference too, if there is interest (also 
from the site of male developers. I can say that the women I talked to  
about the merging, told me that they would prefer to have a 
seperated meeting. I don't know if all think like this, I just can say I  
do. And that doesn't mean that I wouldn't want to participate at the  
conference.

Ok, I will mail to the kde-ev mailinglist when the concept is up.
