Since we specifically want to focus on open source and not only "tech" in general, the only relevant one for us seems to be Red Hat Open Source Contributor? I couldn’t find any further info on that though. We do already list the Red Hat "Women in Open Source Award". :)

What does everyone think?

Sounds good to me !

Does O'Reilly's OSCON Open Source Awards count? They are open to individuals and organizations(not limited to women)

Good question – I would tend to say no since it’s a generic award not specific to underrepresented groups, even though they seemingly improved through the years regarding diversity.
That is, if we add this one then there are a lot of projects that will be on the website. :D Just like also all hackerspaces are potentially open to everyone, but in practice it’s a bit different.

What does everyone else think? @sleepypioneer @emmairwin @jonatoni @alicetragedy and others?

Yep, I agree with @jancborchardt — I don't feel that O'Reilly's OSCON Open Source Awards counts given it's not focused on promoting or supporting diversity in open source software.

I am closing this issue as stale.
