Re: Want to be on the IESG?

["Joel M. Halpern" <[e-mail]>]

Minor point:  The IETF Trust is a bit different.  Terms are 3 years. 
And the RFC actually asks folks to make a long term commitment to 
serving as a trustee.  So at the very least it needs to be 6 years for 
that.  And I would recommend against an explicit limit.  (The trust has 
to worry about legal issues.  And not about standardization at all.  The 
trust has no say in IETF processes.)

Yours,
Joel
