Kirrily has certainly been the highest profile Linuxchick for the longest
time, mostly because of her postings on /. and a.s.r. and stuff.

As for me, yes, I do Linux development and have worked on several projects
and have several that I've started. I worked at Linuxcare as a developer
(but no longer), though it was rubbed in at several critical points that,
despite 24 years as a developer, I didn't rate. I wasn't included on the
teams of open source developers, I was hassled about whether or not I
would be "allowed" to speak at various conferences. In other words, I
wasn't treated the same as most of the men.

Afaik, Elise hasn't done any Linux-related development.
