Women only Geek dinner Update

July 19, 2005 · 1 min read

Well there has been a mixed response to the women only geek dinner at the moment and not all that much of a response from many of the girls, even with a high number of people finding my site.  So far it looks like only 3 people other than myself definately want this to go ahead... we could start with just 3, but it does seem a bit of a shame not to get more people involved... Whatever happened to our Microsoft women geeks?  Not heard from any of them... Not even Sue Loh. :(  And are there any BBC Backstage girls about? )

If you just haven't made up your mind then let me know.  I was thinking about doing it one evening in August.  Date TBC... Probably around the 16th.... In fact, I will go out on a whim here... lets just call it Tuesday August 16th 7:30 and someone can recommend the venue as I don't know London that well... (but suggest somewhere central!!!) If there are no other suggestions I will put one venue forward... The Texas Embassy Cantena 

If I end up there on my own I don't mind... I will just enjoy my evening in London! :)

I am collecting numbers of people now so sign up here!!!

Ps: Guys may attend but only ONE per TECHIE Female... This way if the male developers want to attend they have to bring a techie female with them!!!

Ha Ha!!!!  That should get the female numbers up! :)

    One :%s command replaces every match in a file before a find dialog would even open. The Vim substitute patterns worth the muscle memory: flags, ranges, capture groups, and multi-file edits.
