Gender has no bearing in Boost community

+1 I couldn't express my own thoughts on that matter better.

If gender was such a non-issue, then we wouldn't have [affirmative action][1] (in general) or [gender-quotas-by-law][2] in our societies.

My personal opinion is that any quota-based approach is detrimental to the community. Not just Boost community, but in general. The moment you start segregating people by qualities irrelevant to that community focus and goals, you are introducing social divide in the community and you are taking away from its efficiency.
