subject: Summit: we need more women interested in Info Technology

We need more women interested in ICT, studying ICT and working in ICT.
The government made a commitment at the last election to convene a
summit involving leaders in the ICT industry and education to identify
and address the barriers that may be keeping women out of the ICT
sector."

In womens own words... the "barriers" are women themselves who find
info tech boring and uninteresting. Apparently blowing up balloons in
the marketing department is more interesting as is the socially
friendly 9AM to 5PM hours.
