[Osmf-talk] Reaching out and diversity (Was: Re: AGM and board elections)

[Richard Weait]

Those interested in earlier discussions of diversity can check in on
the diversity mailing list[1].  It is a low-volume list.

Earlier this year several folks on that list worked on this shared
document to brainstorm issues and ideas.

And one link from that document points to this comic which might be an
interesting, short read.

I'd like for the OpenStreetMap events that I host to better match the
local demographic.  Gender balance would be one obvious area for
improvement.  If you've attended any of those events and have some
guidance, I'd love to hear it.  I believe that I'm doing well on
several of the matters raised in the hackpad document.
