I retract my suggestion. It seemed to me like the conversation in the thread wasn't making progress on the issue, and that it would be more productive to move the discussion to Meta or Commons; sounds like I was wrong. Also, I subscribe in digest mode to this as to most lists, so muting individual subject lines/topics doesn't work. I'll just skim more.
I certainly never meant to say that gendergap shouldn't be a place for discussion and collaboration over the difficult issues in our community. I just meant that I'd like MORE of the positive in addition -- both announcements and discussion! When we have outliers in the direction we want to go -- "positive deviants" as Atul Gawande calls them -- I find it valuable to take time to consider what causes their positive deviancy, so I can help replicate it elsewhere.
