FWIW, I agree with Brian about the clarity of BCP 10 and this not being a situation in which we can say "Do the Right Thing", wave our hands a bit, and move on. I have one additional concern that I think needs to be part of this discussion. Whether one believes that IETF 108 will occur, on schedule, f2f and with "normal" levels of attendance in Madrid (and similarly for IETF 109 in Bangkok), I hope we can agree that the likelihood of either meeting being virtual and/or low attendance is above zero. In addition to making it clear who is eligible to volunteer for the nomcom, we need to figure out what guidance we should give people as to whether or not they should volunteer. During the plenary discussions and on the mailing list earlier, I think I heard the current nomcom chair say things than I interpret as a belief that running a nomcom entirely virtually would be fairly easy. I think I've heard others, including some previous nomcom chairs and members, suggest that it would be difficult and might create some complicated biases. So, assume I were an IETF participant who would be eligible under any of the formulas now being considered (for the record, I'm not under any of them). Assume, too, that I work for a company whose travel policies are subject to change, that have changed in the last month or three, and whose policies three or seven months from now are not reliably predictable. Whether it is plausible or ethical for me to volunteer for the nomcom depends, not only on whether I'm eligible but on whether I have a reasonable expectation that, if either everyone is virtual or I'm remote from IETF 108 and/or 109 the nomcom chair and other nomcom members will be willing and able to accommodate that and work efficiently. I think the issues that go into that reasonable expectation had best be resolved on the same schedule as the eligibility issue. They might even influence Andrew and his appointment of a Nomcom chair because, like it or not, a Chair who is experienced and comfortable operating a process similar to the Nomcom with either a mix of f2f and several remote participants or everyone remote would considerably increase the chances for a process that runs smoothly and a volunteer pool that reflects the collection of effective IETF participants as much as reasonably possible. thanks, john --On Thursday, March 26, 2020 16:10 +1300 Brian E Carpenter <brian.e.carpenter@gmail.com> wrote: > On 26-Mar-20 12:54, Salz, Rich wrote: >> Err on the side of including people.
