Hello Drupalchix,
I wanted to start a discussion about scheduling a Drupalchix BoF at drupalcon. I personally think the drupalchix BoF's are very important, and another great opportunity to meet other drupalchix.
Is there a time that works best for everyone? I am going to try and look through the schedule and see if we can find a room we can "take over" for a session, and a time where no drupalchix are presenting (or the least amount). If you know of a time that sounds great, please let me know.
Also, if there is someone else who usually does this, I'll step back. I don't want to step on anyone's toes. :)
Thanks,
Karyn

Yes.
I just got approved for this trip a few days ago, so I'm playing catch up with the Denver-related threads.
In any case, I would definitely attend a drupalchix BoF if one were scheduled.
Looking forward to meeting
Looking forward to meeting you. I'm going to setup the BoF today.
Don't forget to register for the Drupalchix "Party before the Party": http://groups.drupal.org/node/207583
Another great opportunity to meet more Drupalchix. :D
Forgive me for not knowing
Forgive me for not knowing the lingo, but what is a BoF? I might be interested in stopping in

Birds of a Feather. It's informal "sessions" that are scheduled by whoever wants to run one.
Looking forward to it!
This year I'm planning to go to more BOFs and fewer sessions. I'll definitely be at the Drupalchix BOF whenever it is.
(Someday I want to talk about the word 'chick' relative to adult women. Not here, though.)
BoF at Toronto DrupalCamp this past November
I didn't know what a BoF was either. Everyone was invited to stick post-it notes with topics on a wall and just before the BoF sessions began, someone organized the topics into rooms.
No one ran ours. For the most part, there was only one conversation going on in the room but near the end, several smaller conversations were happening on various topics.
Really cool and very informative. It was one of my favorite sessions.
Okay, the BoF has been
Okay, the BoF has been scheduled.

If there are any time or room changes I will post them on this thread.
