to me Sharp came across as trying to score social points by being a "woman in tech" rather than being honesty interested in tech. Something i fear is going on a whole lot in recent years in the FOSS world.

I keep seeing already cash strapped projects go off the rails because someone decides that they need a gender oriented outreach program, complete with elaborate gatherings and whatsnot.

And when that crash and burns, their excuse for the cash bonfire is that the FOSS world is misogynistic...
