The community of free software and open source have their Women, we will continue Mageia :P 8-) :?: well all in due time ;) ...time to time...

Debian Women
Ubuntu Women
Opensuse Woman
Fedora Women
Gnome Women
KDE Women
And more Women sites in Gnome Women Site, section Similar Groups


And more...


What other communities do with marketing? for some examples:

Ubuntu Marketing team
OpenSUSE Marketing
Fedora Marketing
OpenSUSE Ambassadors
Mozilla Marketing
KDE Marketing
Gnome Marketing

What do you think can do the marketing team to bridge the gap between the Community and people?. And believe that things can be made between various marketing teams, example of the different distributions, etc ...)

Coming soon: International Day/Week/Month of Free and Open (that includes both), Software, Hardware, Culture, Standars ... :?: :P :lol: 8-) by Mag (if you're interested you can find me in Mageia ;) ) :D

World day in Wikipedia

Geek day :ugeek:
//en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Geek
//wikipedia.org/wiki/Geek_Pride_Day

Well I think will be a good idea for me to the mailing list Mageia Marketing ... although I like and I feel comfortable with the forum...

Women are human beings as men are, why should we discriminate them by starting an extra campaign for them, is the normal Mageia not good enough for women? Should we have "Mageia Men" as well?

But you are right, this belongs in the marketing section and that's one place in the world I will never feel comfortable. :)

Women will never be equal to men until they can walk down the street with a bald head and a beer gut, and still think they are sexy. :lol:

But they will never be able to post such lines and still think they are witty. :)

Wobo, I have seen many replies from you which go right to the point - but this one beats all of them !

I did not mean to be so aggressive, it's just that discrimination of women (AND the opposite likewise!) is one of my hotspots. :(

Thank you all for the answer...

Wobo I apologize to you and others. Until reading your post I had not thought to do a group women is a form of discrimination and previously cited several groups which does something similar ...

My intention was not to discriminate or attack someone, sorry ...

No reason to feel bad, it was not your comment I oppose but the weird thinking of many people that there is a need to have something special for women in a totally androgynous area. Linux is neither male nor female.
