FW: Third Call for Nominations for IETF Chair, IESG, and IAB Positions.

[Scott Mansfield <[e-mail]>]

Thanks Benoit!

I discussed this with the previous chairs and the tools team also.  Currently the tooling doesn’t have an option to publicly provide the list of accepted nominees without opening feedback. If feedback was open early, we are very concerned that people that give early feedback will not come back and check that there are new nominees and provide more feedback.  So I am joining the tools discussion to identify how to add the option to provide the current nominees but not open feedback. I will leave notes for the next nomcom chair so they have the option to consider.

Thanks!

>> Nominations may be made by selecting the Nominate link at the top of the
>> NomCom 2018 home page, or by visiting the following URL:
>> 
>> https://datatracker.ietf.org/nomcom/2018/nominate/

>> https://datatracker.ietf.org/accounts/create/

>> If you are unable to use the web form, nominations may instead be made by
>> email to nomcom-18 at ietf dot org. If using email, please include the word
>> "Nominate" in the Subject and indicate in the email who is being nominated,

>> 
>> NomCom 2018-19 will follow the policy for "Open Disclosure of Willing
>> Nominees" described in BCP 10/RFC 7437. As stated in RFC 7437: "The list of
>> nominees willing to be considered for positions under review in the current
>> NomCom cycle is not confidential". Willing nominees for each position will be
>> listed in a publicly accessible way, e.g., anyone with a datatracker account
>> may access the lists. Additionally, the nomination form asks if we may share
>> your own name with the nominee. In all other ways, the confidentiality
>> requirements of BCP 10 remain in effect. All feedback and all NomCom
>> deliberations will remain confidential and will not be disclosed.
>> 
>> There is a field on the form you can mark in order to allow the NomCom to
>> tell the nominee that you were the one who made the nomination. This defaults
>> to “no” - so if you don't mark the field we won’t tell.
>> 
>> In order to ensure time to collect sufficient community feedback about each
>> of the willing nominees, nominations must be received by the NomCom on or
>> before September 30, 2018.

>> Please submit your nominations as early as possible for the sake of your
