“Justice Michael Kirby is a puisne judge in the High Court of
Australia, the highest court there. On 21st February 2008, Justice
Kirby was the chief guest in the annual dinner meeting of Internet
Industry Association Sydney, Australia. The audience here, reminds
me of his speech on that occassion,“‘The people who built the Internet… have … extra dimension.
I asked tonight when I came in here and saw you all: why is this
such a male dominated audience? Why are there so few
women…?'”
