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. Mary has
served as a council member for Linux Australia, the largest
non-profit funder of open source projects in Australia and as

She's an amazing speaker and a great advocate for women in open
stuff communities around the world. We're looking forward to hosting
you in Washington!
