In reply to Ryan Hellyer.

Irrelevant, that WordCamp snapshots are near-unrelieved seas of male faces?

That Automattic, and I don't doubt Matt Mullenweg personally, struggle & compete seriously to recruit females, and strive to make the environment more-acceptable ... wrack their brains ... is irrelevant?

I think it's highly relevant. That if WordPress is going to have "personality", it should not play a role in aggrandizing insider-perks ... male domination; elitism.

Seriously, Ryan: You wanna tell us males & females are on an equal footing here?
