The problem (IMNSHO) is that, statistically, if you (company) have a 
large enough proportion of the pool, you have a pretty much guaranteed 
probability of having 2 members.   If you have 2 members for every 
nomcom, you can have a disproportionate impact in the overall 
composition of the leadership of the IETF over time.

FWIR, Huawei has had 2 Nomcom members for most of the last 5-8 Nomcoms.  
Cisco, Ericsson and Juniper have also had substantial representation.

That may represent personal diversity, but it does not represent 
commercial diversity.
