At BarCampApache [1] we will be holding a Meetup up. This will happen on the afternoon of Monday 2nd Nov. The purpose of the meetup is to discuss what a proposed community development/community outreach group within the ASF might do. Primarily this will build on the work done in the name of GSoC and GHOP, it will also consider a proposal for an ongoing ASF mentorship program. The reason for posting here is that the session is not limited to these types of community development, anything that has volunteers to drive it forwards would be welcome to the table. The women@a.o list has not really gone anywhere, but maybe this is another chance to look at the lack of female representation here at the ASF. If anyone wants to join us to explore ideas please come along.

Found on ohloh - the survey is over, but the paper and research are available: http://osfemales.short-stack.net/ "The purpose of this web site is to promote the results I find regarding my research on the effects of gender socialization on females in the open source community. When my research is finished, my paper will be submitted at the AITP (Association of Information Technology Professionals) National Collegiate Conference in Oklahoma City, OK in April 2009." - Shane

Like a fine wine, SCALE continues to improve with age. The 7th Annual So Cal Linux Expo will be February 20-22, 2009. For 2009, the Expo will return to the Westin LAX Hotel, site of the 6th Expo. Because interest in Open Source Software is steadily growing, attendance at SCALE continues to also grow. The depth and breadth of its audience is expanding, so the Expo will add additional speaker tracks to expand the educational opportunities for guests of all experience levels. The Call for Papers for the 7th Annual Expo opened August 4th 2008. The CFP solicits proposals from those who wish to speak at SCALE in February. In addition to three general tracks, a Developer's track and a Beginner's track have been added. So there are many more opportunities to speak at SCALE, and on a vastly wider breadth of topics than in the past. Pertinent dates for the CFP are: 4 August, 2008: CFP Opens 30 Nov, 2008: Deadline for abstracts/proposals submissions 20 Dec, 2008: Last date for notiï¬cation of acceptance 20 Feb, 2009: Conference starts If you're interested in presenting at SCALE, the full CFP can be found at http://www.socallinuxexpo.org/scale7x/s7x_cfp. Please consider speaking - SCALE welcomes your proposal! -- Gareth J. Greenaway | g@socallinuxexpo.org Voice - 877-831-2569 x130 Southern California Linux Expo http://www.socallinuxexpo.org

The Sixth Annual SoCal Linux Expo will be February 8th-10th, 2008. It will again be at the Westin LAX. SCALE has reserved more of the hotel resources for SCALE 6X which will help address some of the seminar crowding issues that arose during S5X (success is a nice problem to have). Over the last two SCALEs, the Expo has expanded to included specialized conferences on the Friday prior to SCALE. The Expo will “expand upon the expansion†for SCALE 6x: the Women in Open Source conference will return for its second year; the health care conference, now knows as DOHCS – Demonstrating Open Source Health Care Systems, returns for a second time. Last year DOHCS was a single track. For SCALE 6X, DOHCS splits into two tracks, a technical track and a business track. And newly added for SCALE 6X is a Friday conference on education: “Open Source in Education†which focuses on opportunities for Open Source in the field of education . If you have any experience in any of the above-mentioned areas, please consider sharing it with the Open Source community at SCALE: the calls for papers for SCALE and for the Friday conferences can be found here: http://www.socallinuxexpo.org/scale6x/conference-info/calls-for-papers/ <http://www.socallinuxexpo.com/scale6x/conference-info/calls-for-papers/> All of the calls are now open for submittals. For SCALE 4X and 5X the speaker slots filled rapidly; we anticipate the same for SCALE 6X. So if you're considering speaking, don't delay submitting your proposal. Submittal info for each conference can be found on their respective CFP pages. If your organization is considering a booth on the SCALE Expo floor, be advised that we no more booths than last year, and last year they went quickly. If you want to ensure that you have a booth reserved, apply for one NOW. If you're a non-profit group, complete the application form at http://www.socallinuxexpo.org/scale6x/documents/scale6x_dotORG_application.pdf and send it to gareth@socallinuxexpo.org The second SCALE IRC chat will be September 16th , at 7:00 pm PST. It will be held in the #scale-chat channel of OFTC (irc.oftc.net). If you have questions or comments about SCALE, feel free to join us. SCALE 6X looks to be even better than S5X; mark your calendar – be in Los Angeles February 8th-10th , 2008! -- Gareth J.

our hot wives]
Hi Apache women! We are a group of social researchers very keen on new technologies applied to the Information and Comunication (ICT) fields. For a long time, we have been asking ourselves what is going on with women and ICT, why there are not loads of women involved in ICT and what those already involved are actually doing. That's why we need your help and input. We would like to know what enabled you to have acces to the ICT, what are you currently doing and what do you expect to develop in the future. From your answers we might find some clues to open up this world to many other women. Do you fancy contributing to the challenge ? We propose you some questions, answering them will not take you more than 20 minutes. In this survey you will find some closed questions where you should mark the answers with an "X" and some open ones where you should write down your answer. You have the chance to answer in english, french, spanish or catalan: http://donestech.net/?q=node/103 You can read in english our manifesto: http://donestech.net/?q=node/256 Results will be distributed copyleft. Thanks. Alex Hache, Nuria Verges, Eva Cruells

I think women@ is a great idea, and is a good focus. For underserved groups, I'm happy if volunteers step up to work on a project that explicitly tries to benefit that group, to get more participants in that arena. Duh, everyone's welcome to participate, but the focus is on women in open source - good focus. To any complainers, I'm also happy to support a men@ or a martians@ group just the same. But it takes people to volunteer to do the work. If you want to volunteer to help GroupX out, great! - Shane, obviously not reading all his mail

Fran Allen is another name Stormy could add to her "Women in Computer Science" slide for winning the Turing Award "for contributions that fundamentally improved the performance of computer programs in solving problems, and accelerated the use of high performance computing" (previous short quote is from the slashdot article): http://science.slashdot.org/article.pl?sid=07/02/22/1320251 http://www.thejournalnews.com/apps/pbcs.dll/article?AID=/20070221/BUSINESS01/702210316/1066 http://www.acm.org/usacm/weblog/index.php?p=469 -jean

This being my first time updating the front page, I added a short note
and didn't kick anyone else's news off.
Humorous side note ... in the q&a panel Dru Lavigne mentioned that when
the BSD developers were looking for fodder for the fortunes file, she
emailed them a long list of tips, which they included one by one. Dru
mentioned how her daughter thought it was really cool to see her mom's
name when she logged in and got a fortune.
well, when I logged into people.apache.org just now to publish the
change to the front page, I got this:
FreeBSD 6.1-RELEASE-p10 (SMP) #1: Thu Oct 26 23:58:02 PDT 2006
To see how long it takes a command to run, type the word "time"
before the command name.
-- Dru <genesis@istar.ca>
It's fun to suddenly have that additional context now for who Dru is.

Thanks! -- justin
Hi Jean! Good stuff! Thanks for sharing. I enjoyed the humor in your presentation-- especially the slide on how many words men and women use. I find that quite often, that's the same way in the business world too, and it's powerful to be able to share an idea in a short, to-the-point way and it's not a good idea to go on and on and on and on and on and form multiple sentences to repeat the same idea over and over and over and over (ok--this part was a joke :)) Since the presentation included a page on how to ask questions, I would like to share a list from Eric Raymond on how to ask smart questions with the rest of the crowd. http://www.catb.org/~esr/faqs/smart-questions.html Yeliz.

Just a quick note regarding the Women in Open Source Mini-Conf on Feb 9 ... It was quite a full day with 7 sessions and a q&a panel at the end. I thought it went really well, with lots of dynamic discussion during the sessions. Slides for two of the sessions (including mine) can be downloaded from http://www.socallinuxexpo.org/wios07 And I'm hoping more will become available. regards, -jean

I've never been a believer in unisex myself (nor in "one size fits all").
I just read "The Female Brain" by Louann Brizendine, a neuropsychiatrist
at UC San Francisco (http://www.louannbrizendine.com). With the vast
number of books about the topic available today, what got me to read
this one was how much the PC patrol blasted it -- I figured anything
that upset them that much must be worth reading! And it definitely is --
it's well written, entertaining, moves swiftly, and rings of much truth.
I recommend it highly.
She does use extremes in her examples, which is part of what makes it so
entertaining, and I think readers just need to realize that actual
mileage varies from one individual to another.
Here's one example that highlights a difference between men and women
that is highly variable IMHO. She cites that men "use" about 7,000
words per day and women 20,000 (page 14). [I heard similar numbers cited
in a witty talk at the Society of Women Engineer's (SWE) conference last
year. The speaker ended the point she was making with, "So, women, when
your husband gets home from work, he has exactly 3 words left: What's
for dinner?"]
I know many women (and even some men) who probably do speak/write 20,000
words a day -- or more -- but I'm definitely not one of them.
Other comparisons Brizendine makes definitely ring true for me and one
of them jelled something in my mind that I've been thinking about for a
while. I mentioned to a few people at ApacheCon US '05 that the
"aggressive" environment at Apache can be offputting for women, and my
observation was mostly met with quite puzzled looks.
Brizendale writes (p. 21) "If you're a girl, you've been programmed to
make sure you keep social harmony." She begins her section titled "Fear
of Conflict" (page 40) with "Studies indicate that girls are motivated
-- on a molecular and neurological level -- to ease and even prevent
social conflict." Two paragraphs later she writes,
"Men often enjoy interpersonal conflict and competition; they even
get a positive boost from it. In women, conflict is more likely to set
in motion a cascade of negative chemical reactions, creating feelings of
stress, upset, and fear."
This isn't to say that *all* women feel this way or that the women who
do feel stress in varying degrees can't or won't dive into conflict.
I've been in software engineering for over 20 years and have had to duke
it out with the best of them many times. About 15 years ago I worked in
a scientific r&d operation that honored me (dubiously, I thought) with
the nickname "Mighty Mouse" (I'm short, very short). But I think the
main point is I have never "enjoyed" conflict and I have definitely
never gotten a "positive boost" from it. I have done what I felt was
necessary at the time for whatever reason -- and been exhausted as a result.
At any rate, what Brizendale wrote has helped me set a better context
for what I've observed at the ASF. The view I had of Apache much of the
first year I started participating was it was an unhealthy, contentious
place. Over time, I came to understand that conflict at the ASF actually
can be healthy and can have positive results.
So, what do I think could be done about this specific differing
viewpoint ("conflict is healthy" vs. "conflict is unhealthy") between
men and women at the ASF?
First of all, I don't think the answer is "change the ASF". I don't
expect the dynamics I view as aggressive to change -- and I don't
necessarily think they should. The SWE speaker also said, realistically,
"Women, you're working in an engineering world dominated by men; you
have to learn to operate within their rules." and I agree with her on
that. The majority does rule.
What we *can* do is help people understand this environment better, help
them understand that the conflict they see is healthy (most of the time)
and (most often) leads to creative collaboration. We can encourage
people to speak up about the situations that make them uncomfortable and
perhaps provide insight for understanding that situation. We can
encourage women to join (and, more importantly, to stay in) the debates
they view as important -- and, hopefully, with less stress.
