While I'm not against a general 'equality' list, I don't think it would be a substitute for the debian-women list. I don't think it makes sense to lump together all underrepresented groups and assume that the solutions to their underrepresentation will be similar. I think, for example, that Africans are underrepresented in Debian, but it's rather unclear to me that discussion on that would have much in common with discussions about women in Debian, or indeed that the groups of people relevant to discussing the two issues would overlap much. -- Moray http://www.morayallan.com/
