Excerpts from Karen Rustad's message of Thu Oct 18 17:07:03 -0400 2012:
> Ship it already!

With the help of Chris Ball, I've updated the photos, and shipped it: 
https://openhatch.org/blog/2012/madeleine-ball-an-inspiration-in-open-medicine-and-free-software-for-ada-lovelace-day/

The URL is pretty long. Sorry about that....

The original title was "Madeleine Ball: An inspiration...free software" 
but then, just before publishing, I decided to add "(for Ada Lovelace 
Day)" so that that would appear in the Identi.ca and Twitter posts about 
the blog post. I carefully checked the slug before I hit publish -- 
good, it didn't contain "for-ada-lovelace-day". So then I hit submit!

And then WordPress outsmarted me, and ended up adding that into the slug 
(URL fragment).

I then removed the "(for Ada Lovelace Day)" from the post title, but of 
course then it was too late.

Anyway, that's what we've got!

-- Asheesh.
