I'm delighted that our postponed annual meeting on Women in Open
Source will take place on the evening of Thursday 17 September. As
always we welcome all OSHUG members to participate. Held jointly with
BCS Women, we have four speakers, each of whom is a leader in their field.
Irina Bolychevsky founder of Redecentralize.org will look at the
importance of open standards in addressing Big Tech monoply power; Dr
Louise Brown, Senior Research Fellow in the Faculty of Engineering at
the University of Nottingham, will look at Modelling and simulating
textiles with TexGen; Dawn Foster of the Governing Board of the Linux
Foundation's CHAOSS project, will look at collaboration on the Kernel
mailing lists; and Dr Becky Faith, Research Fellow and Leader of the
Digital and Technology cluster at the Institute of Development Studies
at the University of Sussex, will look at creating a more
gender-inclusive open source community.

@BCSOSSG. During the meeting we'll be monitoring @BCSOSSG to pass the
questions on to the speakers in real-time.
Dates for your diary: AGM & Lightning Talks
- -------------------------------------------
Our AGM and annual lightning talks evening will be on Thursday 15th
October. This is an opportunity for you to speak for 10 minutes on an
open source topic or project dear to your heart. Past talks have
included open source sous vide cooking and an open source waterjet
engine. Please just email a title and brief abstract to
jeremy.bennett(a)embecosm.com
I particularly encourage OSHUG members to present their work at this
event - nothing like some open source hardware to excite people.
Best wishes,
Jeremy Bennett
BCS Open Source Specialist Group chair
