My name is Atenas da Costa, I am 18 years old and I come from General Rodriguez, a town in Buenos Aires, Argentina. I study Software Engineering in Moron University and this is my first year, so I’m enjoying it a lot because I’m learning new things all the time.
I joined Mozilla thanks to my boyfriend Santiago “nuno” Hollmann, who taught and explained to me all about Mozilla Foundation and their mission. And now, one year later, I’m a member of the Argentina Mozilla Community: spreading the word, giving talks and doing marketing campaigns about Mozilla.

Translation from Kinouchou’s original French text, by Delphine. Kinouchou is an active Women & Mozilla contributor, as well as an active member of the Ubuntu-fr community.
Here are my impressions and point of view of the UDS: how it took place, what I was expecting, and what it brought me.
From May 10-14 2010 in Brussels (Belgium) was held the UDS, the Ubuntu Developer Summit. During an entire week, the Canonical employees as well as many developers from Ubuntu, Gnome, and other FLOSS projects from the entire world gathered in order to meet, work and prepare for the future version of Ubuntu.

We are a non-profit organization for free/open source experts, managers and contributors wishing to help shape a more open and diverse free/open source world.
We think that the free/open source world is based on strong values, such as liberty, altruism and collaboration. And yet, it seems that the free/open source world does not equally address both men and women. In order to better
understand the place of women in the free/open source world, we have developed a survey for the communities, companies and players of the free/open source world.
As a member of the Free/open source world, your opinion is very important to us. We would be truly thankful if you could take no more than 10 minutes to complete the following questionnaire:

The results will be analyzed by researchers in Education Sciences at Paris Descartes University and released at the Open World Forum on September 30th in Paris: www.openworldforum.org.
Should you have any questions, comments or wish to contact us, please send an email to owf-ged@april.org
We thank you for your contribution!
On behalf of the Diversity Summit Team,
Delphine
