Monica Stephens' talk is titled Guns, Germans and Strip Clubs, and focuses on the gender bias within the geoweb and how it falls short of the rhetoric of inclusiveness that surrounds Web 2.0 applications. She looks specifically at the case of how "childcare" was not approved as map category within OpenStreetMap.
