Though women participate in GNU,
are any of them fortunately software package maintainer? Unfortunately, I’m
not sure about this :/
You can find some from <https://www.gnu.org/people/people.html>
(although the page is not complete). Some have spoken in public on the
matter, for instance:
https://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/libreplanet-discuss/2019-09/msg00087.html
https://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/libreplanet-discuss/2019-09/msg00007.html
https://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/libreplanet-discuss/2019-10/msg00015.html
Besides, please be careful when describing the gender gap in GNU or
other projects. Despite the best intentions, results can be the opposite
of what one expects. See: "Does advertising the gender gap help or hurt
Wikipedia?"
