Audrey Tang is a Taiwanese free software programmer and politician who served as Taiwan's first Minister of Digital Affairs from August 2022 to May 2024. Tang came to politics through the 2014 Sunflower Student Movement, helping protesters occupying the legislature broadcast their message, and was then asked by the premier to build media literacy curricula for schools. In August 2016 Tang joined the Executive Yuan as a minister without portfolio, the first transgender and first non-binary official in Taiwan's top cabinet; Tang identifies as post-gender. As a programmer Tang has led in both the Haskell and Perl communities, starting the Pugs project to implement Perl 6, now Raku, writing much of the SVK version-control system and creating Ethercalc. Between 2001 and 2006 Tang launched scores of CPAN projects, including the Perl Archive Toolkit.
