Description:
LinuxChix was founded in 1999 by Deb Richardson, who was a technical writer and web-master at an open source consulting firm.[3][4] Her reason for founding LinuxChix was to create an alternative to the "locker room mentality" of some other Linux User Groups and forums. There are two core rules: "be polite and be helpful."[4]
