Form an Orderly Queue, Ladies

You may have noticed that women are the unicorns of the open source world. Statistics and studies have been compiled on our presence (and our absence) within the community. In this presentation Emma Hogbin will lead you through the current landscape for women in open source. On our journey we will examine the usefulness and pitfalls of what we have created to protect and encourage women—specific attention will be given to the tools, communities, and documents that have been developed over time.

Drawing on personal experience, Hogbin will present you with real solutions that have worked in her community. Explore absolutely new ways of thinking about the gender gap and learn how to take the next step towards really increasing the number of women in open source computing.
