This is a second call for candidates. The first call was posted to this
list jan 14 2008.

The Internet Society (ISOC) provides organizational and financial
support for the IETF. As part of the arrangements between ISOC and the
IETF, the IETF is called upon to name 3 Trustees to its Board (BoT),
with staggered 3 year terms. This requires that the IETF select one
Trustee each year.

A description of the IAB's process for selecting the Trustee each year
can be found in RFC3677.

* Jan 14           : Open nomination period

* Feb 24           : Close of the nomination period

* April 7 or before: IAB selection delivered to IESG for confirmation

* May 18  or before: Delivery of final confirmed selection to the ISOC
                    Elections Committee for announcement with the rest
                    of the new ISOC BoT slate.

Nominations
-----------

Nominations (including self-nominations) should be sent to the IAB --
iab@ietf.org. Please include e-mail contact details with the nomination.

Nomination Details
-----------------

Nominees should be aware that ISOC Trustees are elected to three
year terms with approximately one third of the Board of Trustees
elected each year. The responsibilities of a Trustee include fiscal
management of the Internet Society, fundraising, and participation
in 3 physical Board meetings plus 3 conference-call meetings per
year.  The desirable characteristics of a candidate that are specific
to the IETF-selected ISOC BoT member are outlined in section 2 of
RFC 3677.

Nominees will be asked to provide to the IAB:

  1. Confirmation of their willingness to be considered within this
     process.

  2. Full name and contact information.

  3. A statement confirming willingness and ability to devote an
     appropriate level of time to activities associated with the
     position of Trustee.

  4. A brief biography outlining experience and background.

  5. A statement of interests, concerns about the Internet Society,
     goals as a Trustee and motivation to serve as a Trustee.

  6. Any further information that is relevant to the work of the IAB
     in considering your nomination.



Care of Personal Information
----------------------------

The following procedures will be used by the IAB in managing this
process:

  - The candidate's name will be published, with all other
    candidate names, at the close of the nominations period

  - Excerpts of the information provided to the IAB by the
    nominated candidate will be passed to the IESG as part of the
    confirmation process. The IESG will be requested to maintain
    confidentiality of the candidate's information

  - Except as noted above, all information provided to the IAB
    during this process will be kept confidential to the IAB.

appointment are:

 -  Fred Baker             2005 - 2008 (*)
