	Oooo, goodie, women's lib hits UN*X. Will the discussion be
	centered about changing the name of "man" to "woman"?

	I must admit, being male, I can fathom not alot of reason for
	such a BOF. I know I am missing something though and you'll
	tell me, right?

I love self-referential postings...  This is a posting questioning the
rationale for a BOF for women in Unix which itself constitutes an
excellent recommendation for holding such a BOF.

I'm not sure why Mr. Ward would be interested in Unix anyway -- as any
long-time Usenix groupie could tell him...

Unix is NOT a 'real man's' operating system,
