Hi

As someone who served 2 terms before becoming chair and thus served 4
years in a row, i can state unequivocally that if they weren't unstable
before, they will be after.

The effect of looking at the IESG and IAB (that was all we appointed
when I did it) and knowing that somehow you were responsible in some
part for everyone there was frightening.

I have never fully gotten over it.

On the other hand, i think it is a good idea for someone to have served
on a Nomcom before chairing one, though it does not have to be the
immediately preceding year.  The Nomcom is like little else and shows
you a side of IETF that one might never have seen before or even
realized it existed.  No one should be put into that as chair without
having a clue about what they are gettign involved in.

chair, they must not be mentally balanced. No offense to those in the
past who did that by choice.
