We've been discussing this as one of the problems of inclusion with some of the Diversity (+cc) members, basically the problem is that we can not assume ones orientation and how comfortable they are running around almost naked around what kind of strangers. We can not even ask for an explanation because that already invites a situation where someone will rather run away than having to explain something so deeply personal. Whatever the reasons are, if one is not okay with room sharing, they should still be able to contribute.

Anyone got anything to add to the problem? Should we discuss this problem in a meeting or a ticket?

Hi,

yes I do - I am not entirely comfortable with room sharing though.

Hi,

From the looks of it there are 4 women asking for accommodation (including you), so there won't be a free room (if you were 5 for example so you could be on your own). That's actually how it works in conferences like these, sorry but I can't do something about it. You are free to choose your roommate, but we simply can't afford every subsidized participant to book his own room.
