Diversity chapter: correction on "bragging" in 2017 #13

Description

@jillb

"By 2017, some WordCamp organizers were bragging that half of the speakers at their WordCamps were female, though many camps were still celebrating representation nearing 50% in 2022."

I understand if you want to say "bragging" for dramatic flair, but for accuracy, fyi it is not factual. No one told us this information. We spent a lot of time finding the statistics ourselves in 2017-2019.

Source: Ask Angela Jin how much time she herself spent finding the WordCamps with 50% female speakers.
