[ietf-nomcom] Selection of NomCom volunteers

[S Moonesamy <[e-mail]>]

Hello,

draft-moonesamy-nomcom-selection-00 ( 
http://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-moonesamy-nomcom-selection-00 ) is a 
proposal to update RFC 3777 to increase the number of volunteers who 
are eligible to serve on NomCom and to increase the selection of 
volunteers having different primary affiliations.  In a nutshell the 
rules for eligibility suggested are:

   (a) Not a sitting member of the IAB, IESG or IAOC

   (b) Must have attended at least 4 out of the last 10 IETF meetings

   (c) Each NomCom member has a different affiliation

Item (b) should broaden the pool of eligible volunteers.  It also 
takes into account the 1-1-1 plan for venue selection.

21% of authors for recent RFCs are from five companies.  60% of 
NomCom 2011-2012 members were from three of these five 
companies.  Item (c) is to ensure wider representativity and to allow 
more sponsors to participate in the selection of IAB, IESG and IAOC members.

S. Moonesamy
