Unlike the European Individual Women's Championship, which had more than it's share of troubles before finally being scheduled - again - to take place in Turkey later this year (I'm not holding my breath, darlings), the 2011 EICC is taking place as originally scheduled.
There are some chess femmes participating in the 2011 EICC - a relative handfull compared to the great number of chess dudes - and they will have their hands full trying to make decent scores against the tough competition. I've tried to pick them out of the line-up of several hundred players, but no guarantee I've got them all:

Don't be fooled by the relative scores of the ladies. All of the ladies other than Marie-Francoise Vitasse have higher-rated male players below them in the standings who have not done as well as they :)
Marie-Francoise Vitasse is currently in last place. Don't feel bad, Marie-Francoise, I'm rooting for you - I know how it feels! You've got guts playing in this event, and I salute you.
Highly-regarded male players such as GM Ivan Cheparinov of Bulgaria (2664) is in 26th place with 4.0; GM Jon Ludvig Hammer of Norway (2606) is in 32nd place with 4.0; highly touted GM Ian Nepomniachtchi of Russia (2729) is in 36th place with 3.5 (he came in as the #2 seed); GM David Navarra (CZE 2722) is in 48th place, with 3.5 (he came in as the #3 seed); GM Aleksey Dreev (RUS 2697) is in 57th place with 3.5; Russian GM Nikita Vitiugov is in 70th place with 3.5 Well, you get the picture. It's a tough competition, heh. From my perspective, all the more applause due to the ladies who are up against these dudes.
