[MB] I think that we can evaluate the questionnaires and decide how
much of what is currently provided to Nomcom needs to be public.  Just
as there is a section where nominees can include information that
doesn't get shared with IAB, they could certainly do so with
information they don't want shared with the community.  And, again, my
suggestion was that this information only be available on the Nomcom
wiki as is the public list of nominees, as opposed to publishing on an
open website or mailing list.  [/MB]
