The point under discussion was "women's rights in free software world". In stallman.org, RMS is concerned with political rights and freedom. RMS has rarely been concerned with the issues considered in geekfeminism wikia or linuxchix or the women in <free software> groups. "stallman.org" confirms a general lack of feminist engagement. Even the question of 'encouraging women in computing' is strangely never considered.
