No. Not yet and IIRC it was decided to not go down that road.  TBH,
that kind of organisation would take a huge amount of effort (read,
time) from the women, not to mention the organisational headaches (I
blogged about some legal aspects).  So until we grow that large and
have found enough women to lead from the front, its better to keep
things as simple as possible. Maybe others would have a different
opinion on this point.

We do have the options of registering "linuxchix.in" (its available
last i checked) or any other suggestions members have. However the
"in.linuxchix.org" sub-domain seems the safest as the parent domain is
controlled by women in the international organisation and there will
be less (if none) chances of a single individual MIA or proxy control.
It would be nicer if things could be kept open and transparent as its
supposed to be in any community run project.

Thoughts !!
