I thought "shameful" was an interesting word. A lot of the open source rhetoric...which may or may not be used by people who have real experience with open source project development...is self-righteously egalitarian, and using that word tweaks that part of this sometimes fuzzy-edged group of concept.
The numbers are pretty interesting, though, considering how many interesting ideas get thought out without much face-to-face contact. Maybe there are more women than people realize.
