Hi All,
I’ve really agonised over whether to send this email. First of which, being the
imminent final preparations for FOSS4G taking up a lot of time, but also
whether it’s appropriate for me in my role of chair of FOOS4G to offer public
critique of regional events. It is in this vein that I’d like to really stress
that I’m writing this as an OSSGeo charter member.
When I first saw this, my heart sank: http://www.foss4g-asia.org/2018/keynotes/
Where is the gender diversity in the line up? I know that organising a FOSS4G
is really difficult, but we need to be reaching far and wide and that starts
with our keynotes. Potentially I’m missing something here - and I probably am,
if so I am sorry if this is the case! - but can we have a rethink of the line
up to really represent our community?
Thank you,
Mark
