  That's not my point.
  My point is that if you couldn't travel, you become ineligible.
  It's hard to know if our pool of people is going up/down, because we
don't really know what our total population is.
  I think that the secretariat has numbers as to how many are eligible
for nomcom each time?

  I'm suggesting a more complex measure. For instance, I'm thinking:

      You are not eligible until you have been to 3 of 5 consecutive
      meetings.	  (this makes sure that you have some exposure to the culture)

      You remain eligible if your score is >4 (? >5) on the sum of:
	  1) number of meetings in past 9 (?12)
	  2) number of groups you chaired in past 9 meetings
	  3) number of (unique?) internet-drafts you submitted to WG
	     areas.

  Can you imagine being a WG chair without attending a meeting for a
year?  Yes, I can.  A WG that is *trying* to push final documents
through (so it can close), is not meeting, may actually have VERY
RELEVANT input as to recent state of affairs.
