IETF community,

One of the roles you entrusted to the Internet Society (ISOC) President & CEO, to be fulfilled through consultation with the IETF community, is the appointment of the IETF Nominations Committee chair.  

It gives me great pleasure to announce that Allison Mankin has agreed to serve as the 2013 - 2014 IETF Nominations Committee chair.  Allison served a total 10 years as a TSV AD, most recently 2000-2006.  She currently serves on the Transport Directorate and is the liaison to ISO JTC1/SC6.  Allison has co-chaired several Working Groups including RMT and Geopriv, and going back even further she co-directed the IPng Selection process.

The NomComm process is central to the IETF's success, and it is important that it have robust support.  A Call for Nominations for this committee will be sent to the IETF Announcement list; and a list of the IESG, IAB and IAOC/IETF Trust seats to be filled will be published shortly.   Please give serious consideration to volunteering for the Nominations Committee as well as to possible candidates for the open positions. 

 In the interim, feel free to make your suggestions known to Allison, who will share them with the committee once it is seated.   Allison can be reached at: Allison Mankin <amankin@verisign.com>.

Thank you in advance for your support and a sincere thank you to Allison for agreeing to take on this very significant responsibility.

Regards,

Lynn St. Amour

President & CEO, Internet Society (ISOC)
