Game Modding for Girls

The documented male to female ratio within the game industry is almost 9 to 1 as was recently reported by the International Game Developers Association (2005). Note, though, that this number includes human recourses and other administration jobs, which are not directly tied to game development. I am specifically interested in the problem of the reported small number of women in development, especially within design and programming teams.
