Kingsly,

The reason I still view Swati as a LinuxChix is when it all started, she
helped with the initial infrastructure ( that's what I gather from archives/
past)

I have not had any personal issues with Swati or Atul to cite references as
you do repeatedly.

Having said that the domain owner for a chapter must be a group of women.
Recent incidents might have caused some bitterness however the initial
founders/supporters still have rightful concerns about this chapter.

My 2 cents.
