Instead of feeding the trolls responding to one aspect of my post that nobody actually has any evidence of either way (David brings it up with the weak defense that he thinks people are too quick to rush to sexism and that's a "problem" -- as if being quick to be an unnecessary asshole isn't the overarching issue to begin with), here are some relevant quotes from her initial post that illustrate why the private repos are important: > I’m lucky to have friends in this industry that know me in person and through my work, and thus feel more compelled to speak up. > I evangelize open source whenever I meet new coders or go to meetups. I tell them to make something that they would find useful and put it out there. Can you imagine if one of these new open sourcerers took my advice and got this response, without the support I had. Can you imagine? And her follow-up: > The emails I got really stuck out to me. Some people had their own stories that were way worse than mine. Sadly, several said that this is why they’d never open sourced anything. |

Two people disagree with you what the consensus of that discussion was. Both people provide links. You did not.
Who is more likely remembering the discussion correctly? The folks that provide links to it, or the person that vaguely remembers it?
And we are trolls and you are not?
This must be feminist logic, because I see this sort of stuff at feminist websites everyday.
