I recently read with distress this email from Alan Turing written shortly
before his suicide following conviction for "gross indecency after
admitting to a sexual relationship with another man".

And then read this sad article summarizing the current state of affairs
regarding LGBT rights in Kenya:

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/LGBT_rights_in_Kenya

Is there anything that the members of the KICTAnet community can do to
support LGBT members of the engineering and ICT communities in Kenya?
 Supporting individual rights is critical to creating an environment where
innovation can happen.

Cheers,
Adam
