Improving diversity at XML Prague

Improving diversity at XML Prague

XML Prague is an awesome conference, very well organised and with great talks… but there's one point were it could do better: having a more diverse speaker line up.
For instance in 2017, for the 2nd year in a row, all the speakers of the main track where (white) males. Diversity is not only about having more women presenters, although that would be a good start.

This documents intends to present some thoughts and suggestions for improving the issue. Comments and commits welcome!
(disclaimer: I don't claim to have all the right answers, nor to say that it's an easy endeavor. If you feel this document is useless or otherwise wrong, please comment!)

We can surely do it!
