What
In the attempt to attract more girls / women to take part in our activities, we want to make an atmosphere that is welcoming for women, who often do not feel comfortable enough in predominantly male company which is typical for hackerspaces - at least till they get to know them!
During this evening we will get to know each other, talk about our projects and exchange experiences and interests, and plan the future events and activiites.
This is an event open both to members and non-members, men are going to be tolerated since we want to be inclusive,
The emphasis is on the *ladies* company net-grrls, ladies and vriendinnen, girls, women, moms, cyber-feminists, female hackers, nerdettes, goddesses.... - to be a majority at least for one evening :)
We will get to know each other, make plans for the future events and projects, and have a nice meal!
Agenda

- Drinks :)
- Brainstorm together in an interactive exercise ;-)
- Follow-up on the ideas from previous meeting

How
Un-conference style:
- Whoever comes is [sic] the right people
- Whenever it starts is the right time
- Wherever it happens is the right place
- Whatever happens is the only thing that could have
- When it’s over, it’s over
- The law of two feet
