This year's <a href="http://2010.finncon.org/" rel="nofollow">Finncon</a> features Ellen Kushner, and also Pat Cadigan who's a very supportive ally. Also there's <a href="http://www.imaginales.com/2009/?lang=en" rel="nofollow">Imaginales</a>, one of the largest conventions in France, which is chaired by the amazing Stéphanie Nicot. When not editing best-selling anthologies and running the convention, Stéphanie is one of France's leading trans rights campaigners. A little more international flavor.
