The IAOC already collects gender-related information. The other information requested in the meeting registration form is strictly for meeting attendance purposes. The sensitive questions referred to above have nothing to do with meeting attendance. With respect, this is sampling noise. 12.5% of 8 is 1. Don't get me wrong—it's great that we have some diversity on the IAOC, but I don't think anybody should be patting themselves on the back just yet! What diversity is the IAOC measuring?
