I'm back in 2006 and continuing to time travel... http://www.texasgoldengirl.com/afterhours/code-like-a-girl/ Anyways, I don't see a reason to logo-ize this with an ASF feather. I do see a reason to borrow such a tag line for a specific inclusive initiative, as the ASF welcomes any good code and productive dev- dialog from anyone at all. I'm thinking of running a batch of "Hack Like a Girl" ribbons for the next PenguiCon, handing them out to everyone who who is proud to wear one. (A number of conventions have a very broad ribbon culture, beyond the speaker/sponsor/staff default choices.) --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: dev-unsubscr...@community.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: dev-h...@community.apache.org
