So far, the Nomcoms mostly haven't had to deal with "in the rough" PDs - I think. I may be wrong - but since I haven't been on all of the Nomcoms, and since those details tend to be confidential, I'll never know. It's not only what's written in the PD, it's what interpretation the Nomcom and its member place on the PD. Each combo of nomcom members will reach a "unique" understanding of the requirements for a given position and will use their own judgement to fit round candidates into the mostly round hole they interpret. Nomcom members are people, with biases, life knowledge, intelligence and varying levels of cussedness. They are not automatons running a program that gives the same meaning to a PD that every other member gives. The more objective the requirements, the closer you get to common meaning. The more general the requirements, the further the spread among the understandings of what's required. Discussion helps to narrow the scope. Finally, I would expect any Nomcom that receives an "in-the-rough" PD to push back through the appropriate Liaison - that's one of the reasons they're there. If that doesn't result in a satisfying conclusion, I would expect the Nomcom to do the right thing for the community, not just for the body that provided the PD, irrespective of the requirements stated in the PD. So let me ask you - you've been on a few nomcoms, at least one as a voting member. Did you or did you not interpret the PDs you were handed in light of your own experience, your experience with the IETF and with the discussion within the Nomcom? Later, Mike
