Re: debian-women obscurity, was: Clarification about krooger's platform
The secret is out. A new cabal is trying to cleanse Debian of women through
pure irritation and MJ is in on the action. Gentlemen, steel yourselves for a

very little actual technical work and homoerotic all-male skinny dipping geek
parties at exotic locales.*
Dammit man! It's a list of women in Debian! Men are not women! Get a hobby!
*Andreas... I hate to bust your balls but the concept of a Debian Developer
skinny dipping party turns my stomach. I cannot resist its comedic lure.
