"The Boy Scouts of America (BSA) has unanimously approved a resolution to end the organisation's ban on gay adults working as leaders."

Thanks for the update on this. Ending the ban on the national level does not entirely end the ban, instead it will give local councils the ability to use their own discretion, but this is a giant leap forward. Now if we could only get them to accept transgender scouts and leaders. Maybe next year.
