Really, Andreas? You're complaining that the resigning ED didn't do this and the one appointed less than 36 hours ago hasn't got around to it?
This is not Maggie's responsibility - she is not responsible for employment standards or expectations. That would be the VP Human Resources...who has just resigned, too, and has yet to be replaced.

Nothing appears to have happened since then – we seem to be no nearer to transparency about the non-disclosure agreements and non-disparagement clauses WMF staff have to sign than we were two weeks ago, when discussion around this topic kicked off in another thread.[2]
This seems to be a recurring (and daunting) pattern. People call for transparency about a particular issue. Eventually, someone in a leadership position responds that yes, demands for transparency about this issue are quite reasonable, and in fact more transparency would be absolutely desirable.
At this point, people relax, feeling they have been heard. The clamouring crowd disperses. But in fact, nothing happens, and the same questions arise again some weeks, months, years down the line.
Maggie, is this something your department could take on? It would be good to have one identified person at the Foundation who is responsible for tracking such queries and reporting back to the community, one way or the other.
