See http://cl.ly/5TwV. The relevant quote: "There’s no perceived value in open source for mentoring, facilitation, disciplining of unruly users, training of newcomers or non-technical users, etc., which are needed to support both designers of any gender and women in any role."
This is definitely not true of org-mode. I have had more extensive interactions with the Erics, Carsten, and Bastien, but *everyone* on this list has been helpful in learning not just org-mode, but emacs, literate programming and research, figuring out git, and becoming a contributor as well as a user. Thanks. You're all my mentors. -- Jeffrey Horn http://www.failuretorefrain.com/jeff/
