Data for Debian: 0.9%
Methodology:
I've taken the author of the last changelog entry of all packages in
Stretch. Overwhelmed by the number of people to check, I've limited that
to "key packages" only (by the old definition, which included popcon).
I've then tried to guess the gender to every person, by, in order:
* knowing the person
* is the first name gender-specific? (I'm familiar with western and slavic
names)
* ldap
* 60 seconds of duckduckgo search
This assigned each name to one of categories:
! invalid (eg. team in changed-by)
? unknown
x trans
f ladies
m gentelmen
The figure above is # of most recent changed-by (ie, number of packages,
not people); f/(m+f).
Alas, I no longer have the raw data. Or more exactly, it's on a broken N900
that _might_ be recoverable. Backup your phones, folks!
I believe counting Changed-by: is far more accurate than looking at
Maintainer: and/or Uploaders:, even though it overestimates NMUers. But
hey, unlike Bullseye Stretch didn't have h01ger raid all over it. :þ
[I intentionally didn't include any analysis of possible causes; if you do,
please respond on !d-vote unless it's relevant to the election.]
Meow!
