With Lila Tretikov's resignation today, it will be important for people who think it is important to increase participation by women to speak up about it as a search is launched for a new Executive Director.
I encourage people to monitor discussions on meta about the qualifications for a ED, and comment not just about diversity issues but to otherwise make suggestions.
