A Few Resources for Women in Open Source

,----[ Quote ]
| When I first started programming in high 
| school at age 15 (on a mainframe), I was one 
| of only two or three girls in the class of 
| perhaps 20 students. At the time, I thought 
| that was a pretty good ratio. God knows that 
| I never lacked for a date. Ever since then, 
| however, I've been doing my best to 
| encourage more women to get into the field. 
| Not because I believe that the computer 
| industry arbitrarily needs to have a one-to-
| one ratio, but because I love computing so 
| very much and I want to share that 
| excitement. My enthusiasm extends to the 
| open source community as well.
