Personally, I think that categorising ubuntu-women under LoCoTeams is
more confusing than anything else.  (I sure would never look on a
"LoCoteam list" to find a group of female Ubuntu-users.)

Of course, we could also rename "LoCoTeams" (Local Community Teams) to
something else that covers more possibilities...
