Re: Women at XTech 2008

As you know, XTech has a double-blind peer-review process. If anything, proportionally more papers from women get accepted. It is a disappointing number, I agree.

There are some things I could do to encourage submissions from women that I’ve failed to do this year. Most obvious would be to have more women on the programme committee — there are currently none.

I’d be interested in continuing this conversation in person, looking at practical things we might do.

As a final exercise, it would be interesting to know what proportion of commenters on your blog are women?
