Re: [Gendispatch] New Version Notification for draft-knodel-nomcom-gender-representation-00.txt

Hiya,

I'm supportive of this draft updating our nomcom selection bcp.

I think doing this as a process experiment for a few years may
be useful, mostly to see if it affects how people volunteer to
be on nomcom (e.g. if 90% of people end up choosing pnts then
the experiment will have produced the result that this wasn't
that good a plan and needs changing).

I don't think we should extend the scope to include any other
part of any other processes. If people have good ideas for some
other thing then they can write another I-D.

I also agree with the above change. Ekr's code probably does that
though I thought the draft suggested 9 rather than 8 as the limit
for same-gender selectees but I'd be ok with either.

Cheers,
