AdaCamp is a conference dedicated to increasing women's participation in open
technology and culture : open source software, Wikipedia-related projects, open

ways to address them.

AdaCamp Montreal, our seventh AdaCamp, will be held in downtown Montreal,
Quebec, Canada. on April 13th-14th, 2015, just after PyCon. The event
will involve an unconference held over the two days, along with evening
social events. http://montreal.adacamp.org/
