本文重点介绍了开放源码软件（OSS）社区的包容性举措，以支持妇女谁参加他们的在线社区。近年来，媒体和研究强调了妇女在开放源码软件中的负面经历，我们认为这可能对开放源码软件中的妇女有害。因此，在这项研究中，我们建立在研究的基础上，证明了在线社区少数群体行为守则的价值。此外，我们专注于开放源码软件中的女性专用空间，因为过去对女性和IT的研究表明，当女性能够与其他女性建立联系和指导网络时，她们的表现会更好。我们调查了355个开放源码软件网站是否存在女性专用空间，并搜索、收集和分析了这些开放源码软件网站上的行为守则。对网站内容的定性分析表明，355个网站中只有12个有妇女专页。不到百分之十（28）的分析网站有行为准则。
This paper focuses on the inclusion initiatives of Open Source Software (OSS) Communities to support women who participate in their online communities. In recent years, media and research has highlighted the negative experiences of women in OSS and we believe that could be detrimental to the women of OSS. Therefore, in this research, we built upon the research that demonstrates the value of Codes of Conduct for minorities in an online community. Additionally, we focus on women only spaces in OSS, because past research on women and IT shows that women perform better when they can build connections and mentoring networks with other women. We investigated 355 OSS websites for presence of women only spaces and searched for, collected and analyzed the Codes of Conduct on the websites of these OSS. Qualitative content analysis of the websites show that only 12 out of 355 websites have women only sections. Less than ten percent (28) of the analyzed websites had a code of conduct.
