gee, do you think you included every stereotype about women you could have? the only thing missing i guess would be something to the effect of "they could bake us cookies at conferences." it is really a shame that more women aren't involved in Debian or technology in general, but thinking that their presence would do something other than get some different intellectual perspectives involved would be flawed. i am not saying some women wouldn't have some sort of gentling influence. what i am saying is that this would only be peripheral to what she can add to Debian or whatever she partakes in. melissa. -----http://web.morgul.net/~atomic/------ "Just about every computer on the market today runs Unix, except the Mac (and nobody cares about it)." -- Bill Joy 6/21/85 ----------------------------------------------- GAT d--@ -p+ c+++(++++) l++ u+ e+(*) m* s n+(---) h- f+ !g w+++ t++(+++) r+ x+
