We are very happy to report that we have just been informed that for the first time in history, there will be at least ONE "person of gender" included in this year's Game Design Challenge at GDC. Congratulations to Brenda Brathwaite for this groundbreaking accomplishment, and kudos to Eric Zimmerman and the GDC organizers for doing the right thing. Now if the designers featured can be representative of the popuation overall (i.e., 52% female), then we will have ARRIVED!

I'm confused. She's the first female designer ever to take place in the Designer Challenge? And was there controversy at all or is she just the first female developer ever to apply?
