It was a great pleasure to meet so many of the women whose names I recognized from this mailing list at the WikiWomen Luncheon.  There were about 120 of us in the room, and probably another 20-30 other women who were busy elsewhere at the same time: probably the largest gathering of WikiWomen ever to this point.  I don&#39;t think there was a single session I attended all conference where I was the only woman, which really did mean a lot.  <br>
<br>What is interesting is that, despite this wonderful concentration of women Wikimedians at this conference, we still only made up about 10-12% of the total attendance.  But the strength, experience, and knowledge that we had in the banquet room was amazing and incredibly positive.<br>
<br>To get to know each other a bit, we all took turns introducing ourselves and explaining our link to the Wikimedia projects, and then each of us added three words that we felt were significant to us.  It was really fascinating to see the diversity in that!<br>
