This year's nomcom added a 3rd meeting during the week of the spring ICANN
meeting.  (Next year: 11-16 March, 2012).  While it is not absolutely
necessary to attend this meeting, it does give people a chance to attend
the entire ICANN meeting and I found it a good opportunity to get a feeling
of the ongoing issues and the requirements for the people to be selected.
The plan is to continue to do this in 2012.

In the last 2 years, the nomcom organized face-2-face interviews with some
of the candidates in the week of the ICANN meeting, so expect to be busy for
the entire period of June 24 to July 1.

Correct, expect 1 to 2 hours for the calls and 1 to 3 hours of preparations.

If anybody has other questions about this, feel free to contact me.
