Hi everyone!! Wikimania 2012, which will take place in Washington DC this July, has announced that Mary Gardiner. From the press release: Gardiner is.." co-founder and Director of Operations and Research at the Ada Initiative and founder of the first and largest women in open source organization in Australia, AussieChix, which she subsequently expanded into Oceania as Oceania Women of Open Technology.
