While that was true when it was limited to participation in GNOME
itself, that's not the case anymore. All of the branding is now
"FossOPW":

And reading a blog post like this:

it feels like it wasn't people in GNOME that came up with programme, but
that GNOME was just the first organisation to benefit from it (see "What
is the FOSS Outreach Program for Women").
