    Having a separate event about #DEI in #FOSS would miss the point, or - worse - would reinforce the notion that DEI is an extra, a bolt-on, rather than something which should be fundamental in healthy communities.

    Three amazing women were offering to do the work for this, and yet... no.

    I don't have any details underpinning this rejection.

    Perhaps it is because there were multiple proposals for a DEI track, of which only one was accepted. Unlikely, perhaps, but not impossible.

    @neil I know they get a lot more proposals than they can accommodate. Quite a few have to be rejected without there being anything sinister about it.
