One of the biggest themes Nicole Bluto and Rain Breaw found when they set out to co-organize the drupalchix track for drupalcampla is this:

Awesome!
This is a really great list. I’ll be following up on a lot of these suggestions. Thanks!
Just wanted to note that it should be http://groups.drupal.ORG/drupalchix, not .com.
thanks heatherann!
URL has been corrected.
Thanks again!
I really enjoyed the panel discussion and got to see a couple of the Chix’s presentations. Please let me know what I can do to contribute more.
