replying again. I wasn't very conscious when I posted first time. I've found Shelly to be a good canary in the mine, and gender issues do appear a lot. For the w3c, I'd suggest shifting someone into a role like "community liason" (bet that exists already). With the remit that if all the stuff is coming from male-white-north-europeans, there might be bad tracking. A statistician for heaven's sake, little fat guy from Shropshire. Right now Shelley's claims of boys-own networks do actually stand. Tim, Shelley was bothered that you didn't respond to her. Directors hat off, human hat on. Cheers, Danny.
