1 Women in Free/Libre and Open Source Software (FLOSS) Angela Byron April 6, 2007
2 So, who the heck am I? The boring stuff.
3 A woman... Contrary to what my haircut might indicate.
4 ...involved in open source... Hacker for Drupal

10
11 ...and a huge geek. I pick out paint colours by hex value.
12 But not......able to speak on behalf of all women.
13 So, why are we here?
14 This topic is a bit silly, isn t it?
15 A quote...
16 A quote... Hackerdom is still predominantly male. However, the percentage of women is clearly higher than the low-single-digit range typical for technical professions, and female hackers are generally respected and dealt with as equals...

18 A quote... Hackerdom is still predominantly male.

19 Let s compare some numbers.
20 Obligatory pie chart #1 Gender in proprietary software 28% 72% (Source: FLOSSPOLS, , Ghosh et al)
21 Proprietary software. Feh.
22 FLOSS is about freedom.
23 Gender in FLOSS 1.5% 98.5% (Source: FLOSSPOLS, , Ghosh et al)
24 WTF?
25 So, why should you care?
26 Driving away women means driving away contributors. Both women and men.
27 Diversity makes FLOSS more powerful.
28 Frankly, we kick ass. ;)
29 So why aren t there more women in FLOSS?
30 Social reasons
31 Women are discouraged from technology... Women s Studies 101
32 ...in childhood...
33 ...in childhood...
34 ...in childhood...
35 ...in childhood...
36 ...in popular media...
37 ...in popular media...
38 ...in popular media...
39 ...in popular media...
40 ...in social expectations.

42 ...in social expectations.
43 ...in social expectations.
44 Women have access to computers later Male Female Age of first computer use Age of first computer possession (Source: FLOSSPOLS, , Ghosh et al)
45 Lack of confidence.
46
47 So, that explains it, right?
48 So, that explains it, right? Except...
49 ...not. These are true of all women getting into IT.
50 FLOSS-specific reasons
51 Time to look into the mirror.
52 Anonymity
53 Competitive nature of FLOSS
54 Common perception: You must be this smart.
55 OMG! A GIRL!1!1
56 The big blind spot...
57 Have you ever observed discriminatory behaviour against women in FLOSS? Yes No Male Female (Source: FLOSSPOLS, , Ghosh et al)
58 Some examples
59 Jokes Some examples
60 Some examples Jokes Dates/marriage proposals.
61 Some examples Jokes Dates/marriage proposals. Doubting our intelligence/expertise.
62 Some examples Jokes Dates/marriage proposals. Doubting our intelligence/expertise. Insults specific to females (that time of the month...)
63 Horror stories
64 One example From: Bugtraq Security Systems <research_at_bugtraq.org> Date: Mon, 15 Mar :03: (EST) Dear Starla, At Bugtraq Security Systems we pride ourselfs in having a keen eye for young and upcoming talent. Specifically, core members of our Research and Development team have expressed continously growing feelings of affection towards your person. Or, as one of our researchers put it: "hehehe I'd like to research and develop that _all_ night long :D:D:D". (Source:
65 But wait, there s more! What it boils down to is that we at BSS (Bugtraq Security Systems) would like to offer you.. Starla Pureheart.. prolific warrior princess of the great Nuke Wars of a position at Bugtraq Security Systems. Preferably on your knees. Love, Bugtraq Security Systems PS: All kidding aside, get in touch with us Anna - we need a token femme (Source:

69 So, what can people already involved in FLOSS do?
70 Be sensitive to discrimination. And take action when it happens.
71 Value all contributions, not just code. Documentation, testing, and user support are often gateways for super-hackers of the future.
72 Just say NO to RTFM. Take an extra 30 seconds to point the way.
73 Help people who want to help you. Better documentation Mentorship program
74 Summer of Code
75 Drupal Dojo
76 So, how can women get involved in FLOSS?
77 Um. Do we still want to?
78 Yes! Warning: I m about to get mushy. ;)
79 FLOSS is...
80 ...fun!
81 ...a constant source of new knowledge and experience.
82 ...fundamentally rewarding.
83 ...an excellent career move.
84 So, how do women get started in FLOSS?
85 Pick a project that interests you! Or start one of your own. :)
86 Find all avenues of information. IRC, mailing lists, forums, documentation, wiki...
87 Lurk first. Evaluate the community. Is it a good fit?
88 Contribute as early and often as possible. Open source is a meritocracy.
89 Don t let the intimidation factor get you down...
90 Remember! Everyone was a n00b at some point.
91 Don t tolerate BS.
92 What to do when faced with a chauvinistic pig?
93
94 Choose your battles
95 Choose your battles Sarcasm can be effective
96 Choose your battles Sarcasm can be effective Object, speak out, then report
97 Choose your battles Sarcasm can be effective Object, speak out, then report Men, you should be doing this too!
98 Most importantly...
99 Don t give up on FLOSS! If a project isn t fun anymore, there are plenty of others who'd love to have you on board.
100 If you re a woman involved in FLOSS, be a role model to other women.
101 If you re not, seek out other women in FLOSS. We are out there. :)
102 If you re not, seek out other women in FLOSS. We are out there. :)
103 If you re not, seek out other women in FLOSS. We are out there. :)
104 Conclusion Women are massively under-represented in FLOSS. That s bad. But we can all take steps to change it. That s good! FLOSS is truly rewarding, and women can and should take the plunge.

107 Discussion
108 Ground rules Let s encourage women to respond. Try to keep each discussion point to 3-5 minutes. Be civil - Don t make me +m the room. ;)
109 Why aren t there more women in FLOSS?
110 What have been your experiences?
111 How to deal with the following situations? Sexist jokes Posting sexual material (porn, etc.) Verbally attacking/dismissing women (time of the month) Death threats
112 What are strategies for reversing the trend?
