My friend Alyssa Smith, who was up for the open Ace/Roc senior editor position, is reporting that the position has been filled (and not by her):

The job has been filled; I received a message from Susan this afternoon letting me know that they’ve chosen to downgrade the position a bit and promote internally.

Alyssa speculates that the position has been filled by the former assistant, Jessica Wade. Can anyone confirm or deny that?
