Oh, sorry, I had thought it was an intellectual exercise to spur some
new thoughts and get some random golf-related links into our archives
for some reason.
-1, because we've shown numerous times that broadly scoped mailing lists
that aren't controlled by a healthy PMC won't work.
-1 also because we have no need to provide anonymization services like
the proposal notes the woman@ address would be used for. While people
are free to use whatever external email address for themselves they
wish, the ASF doesn't need to provide an anonymous front-end for them.

P.S. Please remember that the women@ email list will be shut down just
as soon as the infrastructure team finishes the JIRA ticket.

20100722 / APORIA WORK / XIIX
PROPOSAL SUMMARY
Previously at Apache, we have had a list named "wo...@a.o" that both men
and women have posted and subscribed to at varying degrees of overt
participation.
Now, personally would like to propose having a single email address, to be
named "wo...@apache.org" that can be used by both men and women to make a
post.
This email address would ostensibly be assigned to one person, e.g. me, to
start with, and once a working technical specification has been agreed, if
possible, all other persons would be able to invoke use of it in any
situation where he/she/they sees fit and/or where he/she/they may find it
preferable to disclosing their usual email address at the time of use,
albeit in good faith.
