Hoeppner <[email protected]> Date: Thu Apr 20 14:00:13 2017 +1200 Bug 1684333: Change gender identification question To be more inclusive. This is an intermediate short- term solution until we decide how best to remove the question entirely without losing data or turning it into a free form field. behatnotneeded Change-Id: If23b36f9b1ee0a112a8a40e41b6e2e3fa75a43bb (cherry picked from commit d4a26e30d9187bdf6b5e9c4fb1c80602964ae31a) -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Mahara Contributors, which is subscribed to Mahara.

The biggest question is: Do we need to have this question at all? Could we just remove it? We don't need it for registration purposes and if anybody does want to include it in their resume, they could do it as regular text field. Since removing things can impact the data that is currently stored in a Mahara instance, I think we can't just remove it and then leave people without and drop the data as they might have used it in their portfolios. So until we make a decision on how best to proceed, we can already take a small step of making the language more inclusive and use the following options: - (Not specified) - Woman - Man If we leave the question in, we should also have "Prefer not to disclose", but for the time being, let's go with the minimal change as we might remove the field altogether.
