Hi all, This is the Second call for Volunteers for the 2010-11 nomcom. We are just about halfway through the volunteer period so if you are considering volunteering please do so very soon. I am pleased to report that we have 29 volunteers thus far whose qualifications have been confirmed by the secretariat. I have notified each of these volunteers by email. If you volunteered before 08:00 PDT (15:00 UTC) on June 21 to serve as a voting member and have not received a confirmation email from me, please re-submit and bring to my attention right away! However, we need many more volunteers. You have until 17:00 PDT (24:00 UTC) on July 8, 2010 to volunteer for nomcom but it is much better if you volunteer as early as possible. The more volunteers, the better chance we have of choosing a random yet representative cross section of the IETF pouplation. As a reminder, volunteers must have attended 3 of the past 5 IETF meetings - per RFC 3777, which means 3 of the following meetings: IETF-73, IETF-74, IETF-75, IETF-76 and IETF-77. If you qualify, and are willing to forgo appointment to any of the positions for which the nominating committee is responsible, please volunteer. The 10 nominating committee members are selected randomly from a pool of volunteers. The details of the operation of nomcom may be found in RFC 3777. The process on how to volunteer for nomcom is in the initial announcement: https://datatracker.ietf.org/ann/nomcom/2330/ The lists of open positions and people whose terms end in March 2011 and thus the positions for which the nominating committee is responsible are summarized in the initial announcement: https://datatracker.ietf.org/ann/nomcom/2330/ The 29 volunteers who have thus far been qualified by the secretariat are: Fred Baker, Cisco Systems Stephan Wenger, Vidyo, Inc. Marc Blanchet, Viagenie Lixia Zhang, UCLA John Drake, Juniper Networks Ole Troan, Cisco Jiankang Yao, CNNIC Wassim Haddad, Ericsson Yi Zhao, Huawei USA Teemu Savolainen, Nokia Jouni Korhonen, Nokia Siemens Networks Mehmet Ersue, Nokia Siemens Networks Christian Schmidt, Nokia Siemens Networks Stephen Hanna, Juniper Networks Suresh Krishnan, Ericsson Eric Gray, Ericsson David Sinicrope, Ericsson Jan Melen, Ericsson Richard Barnes, BBN Technologies Hugo Salgado Hernandez, NIC Chile Ning Zong, Huawei Technologies Qin Wu, Huawei Technologies Karen Seo, BBN Technologies Haibin Song, Huawei Technologies Susan Hares, Huawei Technologies Tony Hansen. AT&T Labs Fuqing Huang, Huawei Technologies Co., Ltd. Huub van Helvoort, Huawei Technologies Miya Kohno, Juniper Networks The primary activity for this nomcom will begin just prior to IETF-78 in Maastricht and should be completed in early January 2011. The nomcom will be collecting requirements from the community, as well as talking to candidates and to community members about candidates. There will be weekly conference calls to ensure progress. Thus, being a nomcom member does require some time commitment. While, there is no requirement in RFC 3777 that a participant attend IETF meetings while serving on nomcom, please consider that during the IETF meetings, people that do not attend would be expected to remotely participate during the day in the time zones of the meeting locations - Maastricht at the end of July and Beijing in November. If you are not yet sure you would like to volunteer, please consider that nomcom members play a very important role in shaping the leadership of the IETF. Ensuring the leadership of the IETF is fair and balanced and comprised of those who can lead the IETF in the right direction is an important responsibility that rests on the IETF participants at large. Volunteering for the nomcom is a good way of contributing in that direction. Please volunteer by sending an email before: 17:00 PDT (24:00 UTC) July 8, 2010 as follows: To: nomcom-chair@ietf.org Subject: Nomcom 2010-11 Volunteer Please include the following information in the body: <Your Full Name> // As you enter in the IETF Registration Form, // First/Given name followed by Last/Family Name <Current Primary Affiliation> // typically what goes in the Company field // in the IETF Registration Form [<all email addresses used to Register for the past 5 IETF meetings>] <Preferred email address> // <Telephone number> // For confirmation if selected Please expect an email response from me within 3 days stating whether or not you are qualified. If you don't receive a response, please re-send your email with the tag "Duplicate:" added to the subject line.
