@xmj posted the whole (private) IRC discussion online. Here's the link: https://archive.is/9KGyX#selection-9.6580-9.6583 I don't like to post private conversations, but this has been reported in other communities and it is an important piece of the puzzle to crearly understand the situation. This has to be discussed, because I think we need to fix the gender gap, but this kind of "fundamentalism" is not healthy. This…

I would rather you not repost things that were said in confidence. But if the above is true, I think it's up to them to explain / put the conversation into context. Simply slapping down evidence on the table really isn't helpful when parties can't explain their side.

Unless you're part of FreeBSD core or the FreeBSD Foundation, I don't have to air anything. Dude chose to make things public, and the mob descended, so I responded & that's where we are. If you think I'm going to elaborate on part of an incomplete log that violates the Developer Policy for FreeBSD, you are mistaken.

Core and the Foundation will deal with this, and I'll make a public statement after they do. But until this problem has been resolved, there's no point in explaining it to a bunch of randoms that aren't even a part of the project. I give 0 fucks about the court of public opinion when it comes to dealing with an abuser in an open source project that I've been a part of for over a decade.

I think plenty of things are about to be aired about you, Randi. I'm really looking forward to Nero's Breitbart piece. I hope you are too.

Good luck with that. You harassed other women off the internet, but I'm made of stronger stuff, and I'm not going anywhere. I'll continue to protect people from abusers like you by writing code, driving community, and pushing for better dev policies.

Isn't it fun how Google is changing how they treat delisting? I sure think so. :)

Only a fool would take an outlet like Breitbart seriously.

Factual discussions with reporters isn't harassment, as you'll soon be taught by your own peers.

"I'll continue to protect people from abusers like you by writing code" ----- best way for you to do this would be open up a console and type in "shutdown"

You're welcome

And what is your take on the conversation? What am I looking at?

I believe she has a point when talking about how bad is the current tech scene for women. It's still a kind of "men club". The environment is not friendly, it's getting better, but I can't consider it genuinely equal. In the opposite I think the way she's trying to pursuit the goal is wrong and counterproductive. There are many other ways to achieve a goal like promoting gender equality in tech scene, fighting with i…

There are some problems with your post: when is it equal, when there's a % of women in it? Why do you think the tech scene is bad for women?

Curious as to whether that was an open channel.
