I just saw this comment and I agree with Peter. I have occasion to ask
questions and get help on the R forum but I am not a programmer and use
programs as I need them and I suppose I must comment more often. :)

Nice graph, Scott, thanks!
Based on your code I plotted not the absolute numbers but the ratios,
which show slowly increasing relative participation of female Rhelpers
over time (red = women, blue=men, black=unknown). After a c. 5% female
contribution in 1998, this has grown to about 15% now.
Thanks for the responses so far.

I agree with this, but then again I don't think R really has 0% female
users/developers as the R member list suggests.

Hi there,
I can't help to notice that the gender balance among R developers and
ordinary members is extremely skewed (as it is with open source software
in general).
Have a look at http://www.r-project.org/foundation/memberlist.html - at
