ROSE Blog: Rikki's Open Source Exchange
On OStatic today Kristin Shoemaker wrote about GNOME's revamped outreach program for women. Kristin links to a post on Marina Zhurakhinskaya's blog, which provides more details about the program. Marina writes, "GNOME Outreach Program for Women will allow more women to learn how exciting and approachable the free software is and to gain the necessary qualifications to work in the free software industry, contribute to and create free software projects."
Planning notes for the Outreach Program for Women are available online and include background, a list of projects and mentors, and resources. You can contribute to the program online at the Support women participation in GNOME page.
