NomCom -- 5 October 1999 -- IETF-Announce
-----------------------------------------

Update to Call for 1999 Nominations Committee Volunteers 

According to RFC2027 the call for volunteers must include
the list of open positions with the solicitation to:

        to facilitate community members choosing between 
        volunteering for a open position and volunteering 
        for the nominating committee.

Since I neglected to include that in my first solicitation, I am making
yet another call for volunteers.  But any excuse will do.  Several have
volunteered, but nearly enough yet.

In addition to being a great way to serve this community, volunteering
for the NomCom is the best possible response to the urge most all of us
have felt at some time or other:  'I would have picked someone else'.
So, to anyone who has ever felt that way, I strongly recommend you send
your name in as a member of the volunteer pool.  The more individuals
in the pool, the better our chances of getting a NomCom which reflects
the diversity of the IETF population.

To qualify you must have attended 2 out of the last 3 IETF meetings.
You must also not be interested in being nominated to replace any of
the current office holders in the following positions:
