I would also be falsely guessed as American based on my ICLA
information. Less confusing in my case than in some, because I am a
native English speaker of European ancestry.

I moved to the USA from another country, and US address is given in the
ICLA. That is true for a good number of my friends who started getting
involved with open source as well. Including or excluding people like me in
the analysis would not really capture the diversity part.
So I think doing the analysis is a great idea, but we should be cautious
about the conclusions we derive from it.

I agree in principle but the lone committer from Failuristan, where
participation in Open Source can get you in trouble, would not be
happy to see that.
For several years I was over 50, female, and a student in UCSD's
Computer Science PhD program.
Considered separately, age, gender, department, and intended degree each
seems harmless. Taken together, they uniquely identified me.
I looked closely at surveys, and checked whether they had a minimum
group size policy that would protect my privacy. I would have been upset
to see information I had supplied for legal or administrative purposes
treated as research survey data without having the opportunity to decide
for myself whether or not to participate.
