Call for IESG scribes

[Suresh Krishnan <[e-mail]>]

Starting in 2005, the IESG decided to have volunteers scribe narrative 
minutes of their telechats and publish these to the community.

The formal IESG telechats are open to the community. However, the scribes 
also cover informal telechats, IESG retreats, and IESG meetings during IETF 
weeks.

A number of Narrative Scribes have contributed their services over the years. 
In 2016 the active scribes include John Leslie, Susan Hares, and Carlos 
Pignataro. The total workload is currently more than three scribes can 
handle. Thus we are looking for at least one more scribe. (More than one
would be welcome.)

To understand the type of output that is expected please take a look at the 
narrative minutes that are posted at:

https://www.ietf.org/iesg/minutes/2016/index.html

The scribes help the community immensely by providing a historical record of 
the IESG conversation that promotes transparency. In this regard, there is a 
need for discretion, an understanding of what needs reporting to the
community and what does not. The scribes also gain an understanding of how 
the IESG works, and both Spencer Dawkins and Barry Leiba have found that 
understanding helpful as they transitioned to IESG members.

If you are interested in performing this role, please get in touch with me by 
October 31, and I will provide further details.

Thanks
Suresh
