Hi all,

Daria Cybulska (at WMUK) and I are working on organising an event for Ada Lovelace Day (16th October, though ours may fall on the 19th) - http://findingada.com/about/ - "...an international day celebrating the achievements of women in science, technology, engineering and maths".

We're modelling it on Sarah's "Women in Science" event at the Smithsonian from earlier this year - which, by happy coincidence, was on almost the same topic, so we get to crib shamelessly. ;-)

Has anyone run an event around Lovelace Day in the past? Is anyone else thinking about doing so? We'd be interested to hear about it, if so...

Thanks,

- Andrew.
