Hi Adrian, I understand you want to raise awareness about this issue, as consciousness on the sexism inherent in technical communities was raised in Debian and many other free software communities over the last... 15 years? But... This is a point that should be made on each of us as individuals. I think it is valid and appreciated rising the issue at the DPL-wannabe debates, but... I suggest you to bring the issue now to a less person-bound thread/list — I invite you to move the talk to debian-project, or (as it has been done on several other issues in the past) monitor calls for beersigning and such. DebConf is a meeting where alcohol is abused in the eyes of many of us (even some, like myself, that do enjoy drinking), and your opinion would surely have some resonance there. Anyway — I do not think this is a point where Mehdi's and Chris' campaigns will differ. It is not a point that has been brought up AFAICT, and I don't think it's an issue where an individual as a Leader will make much difference. Bring it to discussion on one of the more general project spaces.
