The open source community, like any other part of the technology industry, is grappling with finding solutions that are more than just talking the talk of diversity, but actually make some demonstrable difference in the numbers. While there have been numerous success stories, the gender gap is still rampant. The answer, at least to one freelance entrepreneur, is providing strong role models of women using open source to have fun and make money. But is that enough to make a difference?" http://a.fsdn.com/sd/twitter_icon_large.png (http://twitter.com/home?status=Getting+Young+Women+Interested+In+Open +Source%3A+http%3A%2F%2Fbit.ly%2F1b079Jq) http://a.fsdn.com/sd/facebook_icon_large.png (http://www.facebook.com/sharer.php?u=http%3A%2F%2Fdevelopers.slashdot.org% 2Fstory%2F14%2F02%2F04%2F2247211%2Fgetting-young-women-interested-in-open-source%3Futm_source%3Dslashdot%26utm_medium%3Dface book) http://www.gstatic.com/images/icons/gplus-16.png (http://plus.google.com/share?url=http://developers.slashdot.org/story/14/02/04/2247211/getting-young-women-interested-in-open-source?utm_source=slashdot&utm_medium=googleplus)
