Hi Fernando, Vinayak, Alejandro, At 21:54 16-12-2015, Fernando Gont wrote: >Not sure what you mean by "has less value"... From the blog article: "The 2013 NomCom appointed 3 women to the IESG and 1 to the IAB. The 2014 NomCom added one more woman to each of those leadership groups as well, matching (at least for the IESG) a prior high point of 4/15 women in the IESG." The issue which led to the diversity debate was not about the number of women who were WG Secretaries or WG Chairs. It was about the number of women who are appointed to the IESG. I'll use myself as an example. In terms of diversity, and assuming that I am considered as part of a minority group, it does not make much of a difference if I am WG Secretary or WG Chair as it is the Area Director position which is viewed as important. >Not sure I understand the question. > >If it is "for companies/agencies, what is of more value? authoring >documents or a management position?", then the answer would be "it >depends on the company/agency, and varies a lot from one to another". > >If the question is what *I* think i of more value, then I'd say that >it's similar as asking "what's of more value for a car? the sparks, the >fuel, or the carburetor?". i.e., unless all parts work properly, the car >doesn't work, or you get suboptimal performace, or the car eventually >breaks, etc... I'll use an RFC as an example as it is clearer than the above analogy. The author of the RFC is in Latin America. The person works for Huawei Technologies. In my opinion, the company found it useful [1] to spend money on that IETF standardisation work. The company might also find it useful to spend money to fund an Area Director as "ADs are also entitled to select and directly manage the working group chairs" [1]. Here's another example [2]: "As executive director, she will also spearhead efforts to streamline and broaden communication with groups ...". In a message [3] on this thread, there was the following comment: "FWIW, that doesn't replicate at all in developing countries." In my opinion, the above means that it is not possible to get money from research programs in Latin America to do standardisation work. In another message [4], there was the following comment about funding: "Harder to come by in developing countries but I have seen this changing slowly but surely. ISOC and other local organizations are doing a good job here. I can see the efforts of these helping." In my opinion, that means that it is not useful to change what is being done for people in developing countries as there are already organizations doing a good job.
