I'm not sure that we actually have enough information to say that.
https://mailarchive.ietf.org/arch/msg/ietf/o8p6rh9boOs65QTTIpBb73t-fV4/
says "has informed [the Nomcom chair] his affiliation has recently
changed".  That's not exactly "has said he cannot serve", and doesn't say
anything about when the affiliation changed with respect to the timeline of
the Nomcom selection process.  Is there other information available that
I'm missing (n.b. I'm quite behind on IETF mail at the moment)?

Thanks,

Ben
