Judaism has been formally ordaining women since at least 1935 (Regina Jonas, Germany, murdered by the Nazis in 1944), and has had women acting as rabbis for over 400 years (Asenath Barzani, Iraq, 1600s CE, taught at and administrated a yeshiva). As usual, what a denomination of Christianity does, the Jews beat them to by several centuries.
@7: Most female rabbis are Reform or from splinter denominations, but Conservative congregations have been ordaining some recently. The Orthodox tradition, though, for women to sometimes act as rabbis but to technically have different titles (more along the lines of a teacher than a judge), such as Ms. Barzani above.
