Asa is a woman?

[ music | Aerosmith – Dude Looks Like A Lady ]

Well, according to this article, “– Det verkar som om webbstället Spread Firefox hackades i ett försök att skicka ut spam, säger Asa Dotzler, taleskvinna till IDG News.” which translates to: “- It seemes as if the site was hacked in an attempt to send out spam, says spokeswoman Asa Dotzler to IDG News.” And all this time I thought HE was the QA lead. Thanks to Dunderklumpen for the translation and link.

    In Sweden we have the name Åsa, which is a female name. I actually was confused myself first time I heard the name Asa.

    Just goes to show, sometimes you just can’t tell.

    José Jeria: I fully understand the female name bit, but even the slightest bit of research by the writer would have revealed otherwise.

    Everyone knows Asa is a large breasted dreamy geek chick, and no amount of photoshopped "official pictures" from her website will convince us otherwise.

    Makes a change from people thinking that Mitchell is a man.

    Actually, Asa (without the ring) is a female name too in sweden, although much less common. So it’s not that surprising.

    Ahh, so does that mean you want Asa to pose in a thong and babydoll tshirt for the <a href="http://burntelectrons.org/i…" title="Mozilla Camgirls">Mozilla Camgirls</a>?

    Wow, I butchered that one. jX, you want to fix that one for me, pretty please? In other news, I think you may have some issues with your Nucleus install, since it should allow tags but replace them with internal Nucleus entities, not break them.
