JTA, the Jewish Week and the Forward all have good pieces about the search for the new Chancellor of JTS. They all pretty much say the same thing, which is nothing new: the movement is in an identity crisis and is about to enter a monumental battle over its future direction. Some names are being bandied about as successors to Schorsch (not really including any women, as the Forward points out) but it's early days.
Two blogs have sprung up following the selection process: JTS Future and JTS 2006. So far they are basically reprinting material from elsewhere -- I hope they start posting some original material, including debate, comment and of course inside info. Does anyone know of any other blogs offering insight on what's going on in the movement?
