10
Why aren’t there more women involved in technology? Back in July, when we wrote about David Wheeler’s account of his trip to Brazil’s 6th International Free Software Conference (FISL 6.0), he specifically mentioned meeting Fernanda G. Weiden there and how successful she has been in getting women there involved. I contacted her and asked if she’d be willing to explain to us why she thinks there are so few women in software development and what can be done to improve the numbers. What is her secret?
