Note, missed your first message so got wrong impression from what looked alike a comment "Eat me, I'm an azuki". But online people often miss part of messages or misunderstand intentions... Of course, you now feel a bit what it's like for someone to misinterpret what you write because of you

As part of the highly unofficial video crew for the conference, please LMK off-list if you want video coverage of the meetup or any presentations. There will be a few of us with video equipment; our deployment to specific conference sessions and meetups is TBD. On Mon, Oct 5, 2015 at 11:41 AM, Kat

Because of a vacation and wedding I'll only be able to make Sunday, assuming not too tired. Plus the schedule pretty empty that day except for art and feminism. Thought there ARE more spaces for meetings then and maybe Sunday AM in one of the "Unconference sessions" or other open spaces would

I will be there in my WMF staff capacity and I would love for there to be a gendergap meetup! I'm busy from dinnertime onwards on Saturday 10/10, but other than that I can make time for whenever works for people. A lunchtime meetup sounds like a good place to start. -Karen/Fluffernutter On Sun, O

Well, I'd personally expect assault and persistent stalking/harassment to be made crimes. But being obnoxious isn't being harassing. If that were the truth, then I'd be in prison for "harassing" a girl in class that I liked in school. We shouldn't let the nanny state speak up for every "discrimi
