Karla Valente (ICANN Staff) organizes a "Women in the DNS" breakfast meeting at most ICANN meetings. The SF one will take place on Monday 14 March at 7 a.m. in the venue hotel (Westin St Francis) - I've attended a couple in the past and found them useful and a good way to meet other women working on DNS issues (from business managers to technical folks).

I've noticed the same issue, and it is a broader one than NCSG. Check out the gender balance for applications for the SSR Review team http://www.icann.org/en/reviews/affirmation/review-2-applications-en.htm (21 applicants, 100% male). The only women involved in the SSR team are Alice Munyua as GAC appointee, and Alice Jansen as staff liason. Regards David
