That is my opinion as well. I think it is no problem as long as there is a 
majority of women on the list. (Otherwise the list should get a different 
name)

Like Heike IŽd like to introduce myself as well. 
IŽm 27 (4 days younger than Ralf ;-) ). After studying electrical engineering 
at the Technical University of Darmstadt, Germany I am a PhD student at the 
same university since 2 years. I started with Linux 1998 and started to learn 
QT/KDE coding this summer, so I am still a newbie. 

Since I am not very creative, at least not in painting, IŽd like to leave 
these things to other people. Personally I am interested in the construction 
of frontends and the question how to design tools for difficult tasks so that 
a user can work with it without reading a 500 pages handbook. 
One thing IŽd like to learn more about is design patterns for interactive 
tasks, styleguides, ...

Another interesting thing is teaching. Between Christmas and New Years Day 
there will be a meeting where we want to setup a course on 
QT-/KDE-programming in order to give a starting point to interested people. 

Is someone interested in similar things?
What about having workgroups?

Greetings,
eva
