They recently (yesterday) hired a new "Chief Communications Officer" [Katherine Maher] but are still in process of finding a New Executive Director for WMF ....on the 25th, the job posting was taken off and this was posted by Jan Barte on meta

As mentioned before we have taken a different tactic in finding new
candidates and we have met with several people and we have had several
meetings with candidates with two or more members of the Transition Team.

We are at a point where we have three candidates that we all feel are
great. We hope to speak to them in the coming week or two and hope to go
into the final process (reference checking, terms negotiation etc.) after
that. We would then likely be looking to announce the new ED in May.

Sue touched upon this subject during the Metrics update which took place
on March 6th.
