Not enough for mem. With you, I am for raising awareness, not quotas. At least a couple of the best hackers in Perldom are female and I think highlighting that is great. Showing young persons of *any* persuasion things for which they can be admired that don't involve theft, binge-drinking, luck, violence, or any of the manifold things the world at large pushes at them... It can only be good. Young people need to know there are options and achievements and money out there to be made in places other than the grotesque roads painted by Hollywood and pop-culture.
