19. Why is GOPW so awesome
✔ Inspired by Google Summer of Code
Motive - balancing the gender ratio of the
✔
community
Removes the fear of competing in a field “not meant for
✔
women” and with men who are stereotyped as “technical”.
✔ Cleaning up the community-

✔ Opening opportunities to work from home for women.
20. How can we create maximum
awareness about it
➔Email invitations to the past year participants
➔Create Google groups
➔Get advertisements posted on feeds and blogs
outside the GNOME world but with a large
technical audience
➔Getting more supporters of GNOME and be
open to receive support in non-monitory ways
focusing on outreach and increasing mutual
recognition
22. Let's see live demonstrations of
some of my branches (some are not
yet merged upstream)-
●Leave/Join Chat, /part command
●/nick command works only for accounts
supporting it
●Save all button in Debug Window
●Contact blocking and report abuse(which I re-
based for Danielle)
●Account Manager could not be contacted-
runtime error display dialog
