    In a 2007 interview, he said:

    I don’t have any experience working with women in programming projects; I don’t think that any volunteered to work on Emacs or GCC.

    A number of women have contributed to GCC, including:

    • Janis Johnson maintains the test suite and has been a contributor since 2001
    • Sandra Loosemore is the lead author of the GNU Library Reference Manual;[3] RMS is listed as her co-author.
    • Dorit Nuzman made major contributions to loop scheduling and vectorization.
    • Carolyn Tice is also mentioned as a contributor.
