There's a parallel talk into it chapter about gender gap. This gap is part
of a larger gap involving software development in general; there are few
programmer women. I presume, that this highlights a similarity between wiki
and a software development environment; and really many from most
enthusiast, and productive contributors are too programmers.

But... as you know, the profile of a programmer is far from the profile of a
woman; consider the famous statement "The three chief virtues of a
programmer are: Laziness, Impatience and Hubris.". Then consider the pedia
statement  "Be bold!", that is a gentler way to name "hubris". :-)

Is gender gap so mysterious?
