In fact, thats what I really like about mailing lists and the like: Race, gender, age, status do not matter; Camaleón is a woman? Even if she were a 104 year old tibetan monk I couldn't care less as long as it is not relevant for the topic at hand. This whole thread feels strangely off ... Mhh, why exactly am I writing this?

I don't have the expertise you have, Camaleón, but am not exactly a n00bie either.

I've been in mailing lists time enough to know how to deal with all kind of people, their reactions and also had to learn to read between lines... And while reading your comments -not just "yours" but all of you- I've been ROFL (+1 to briand for compare me with a Turing machine, that was funny X-) ). What still amazes me is that people is surprised to see women participating in these mailing lists (in particular) and in FLOSS (in general).

Still remember OP question? it was "Squeeze: How to hide certain partitions in Nautilus". Sorry Camaleón to have dragged you into this mess. My intention was good -- showing that how woman can also do admiringly well. And I believe wolf python london meant the same as well, and so does Nicolas Bercher and briand. Also I believe that everyone who had received help from Camaleón will feel the same, especially when they realized Camaleón is actually a woman. So, let's not derail too far, and let's not respond to those who does. This has long been a separate thread and I see you've started another one.
