drwexhttp://readercon.org/publicstatement.htm - Readercon's public statement on the recent incidents (harassment, and subsequent failures).
tl;dr version: We fucked up. We're really sorry we fucked up. We'll try not to do that again and here are some specific steps toward that. Those responsible have been sacked.
What happened still happened, and there are waves and consequences that I expect will ripple out from that for some time to come. Still, speaking in this moment of time about this specific statement: BRAVO! Extremely well done.
Kudos to Crystal Huff, Rose Fox (named on the statement), to the other unnamed concom members, as well as to all those many more unnamed who supported and advised them as they worked to this point. We are never too old to learn.
