First of all my original post was not focused on this case alone. I'm interested in the general pattern of the problem, of which this appears to be just one instance. I'm also interested in how it can be solved to increase the participation of females in the development community.
But with regard to this specific case, since you say that you see no evidence at the original link, I would urge you to think about the fact that you evidently do not consider Julie's own words that she has been harassed to be evidence enough. Denying that there is an issue, or that the complaints of women like Julie are legitimate is part of the problem in the first place.
Personally I see a consistent pattern of low participation of women in the industry, and regular instances of women complaining about sexist treatment and not being taken seriously. I therefore see no issue with taking Julie's words at face value because I see plenty of evidence that this is a legitimate problem.

That's a bit rich, coming from rapist like you.
