Hi Niki - I love the idea of a social media/ hashtag campaign to promote
awareness.
The only suggestion I have is to propose we make it more inclusive of
broader groups in the OpenStack community.
For example: #iamopenstack
Would like to her other comments as well...

[OpenStack][Women of OpenStack] Kick-off Meeting Info
Doh. I missed the meeting. Totally my fault. I converted to Central time,
but put it in my calendar while my calendar was set to Pacific. Time
conversion obviously not my strong suit.
I had an idea I wanted to share. In the case of diversity and women in
tech, we’ve had events/breakfasts/activities for those groups. While the
events are fun (I LOVED the boat cruise), it doesn’t do much to bring the
group back into the fold of the community.
What if we did a Twitter campaign associated with a hashtag similar to the
#ilooklikeanengineer campaign that ran a while back?
We could do something I like #isupportopenstackwomen or
#isupportopenstackdiversity (or some other hashtag that is potentially
shorter) and use them throughout the Tokyo event (and potentially beyond).
We might also be able to get some folks in the community to kick things off
with tweets followed by the hashtag and have a photo booth area with
signs/props for photos/sharing. Maybe a chalkboard that folks can write on
or a whiteboard sign with the hashtag. We could also have them in different
languages representing other countries.
Sample tweets would answer “Why do you support diversity in OpenStack?” or
“Why do you support Women of OpenStack?"
Because my daughter deserves to succeed #isupportOSwomen
Because OpenStack is better for it #isupportOSdiversity
Because vanilla is boring ##isupportOSdiversity
Because our users are diverse #isupportOSdiversity
Because the women’s bathroom can be lonely #isupportOSwomen
Because the glass ceiling deserves to be broken #isupportOSwomen
Because diversity = innovation #isupportOSdiversity
Thoughts?

I did wonder about that.

Or alternatively, how about falling back to the standard medium that's
been
effectively mandated[1] for project team meetings upstream, i.e. public
logged IRC?
Cheers,
Eoghan
