Sarah Brown has been a guest in my home for a short period of time. I can vouche for her that she can stand on her own two feet, with or without Richard. She is bright, energenic and is a welcome face in any of NYLXS's functions.
You should actually read what she wrote about Computer users getting up and doing something to protect digital freedoms, and the broad social implecations that Free Software is having on society at large. If you shove your biases aside, you can learn something from her.
I'd really upsetting to read the stupid posts taking pot shots at her, mostly because she's a women. Is it any wonder that most computer organizations can't attract women?
