Hi All, We are halfway through the nomination period (it ends on October 2, 2011) and we need more nominees than we have received so far. We appreciate the folks that have taken the time to nominate people and those who have accepted so far. But the fact remains that the number of nominations have been below average and the acceptance rates of those nominated has also been low. We need **YOUR** input and participation! We cannot properly execute the task of selecting the best candidates for these positions with so few nominations and acceptances. So, please consider making nominations for the open positions, in particular those for which we have so few nominations � it takes just a few minutes of your time. Right now, we just need the names/email addresses. Why do we need more nominations? Well, even if you think a willing incumbent is doing a very good job and should be returned, his or her ability to serve again might be impacted by unforeseen circumstances between now and March. NomCom needs to consider multiple nominees to be prepared in the event one or more candidates is unable to serve come next March and to ensure we have chosen the best candidate. There are several ways you can help the Nomcom - You can nominate yourself. - You can nominate someone you know whom you think would do a good job. Don't worry about whether they might already be nominated. We would much prefer to receive the same nomination several times rather than miss a good person we should consider. How to submit Nominations: -------------------------- The list of positions we need to fill, and the provided Job Descriptions, and forms for nominations, can be found in the call for nominations at: https://datatracker.ietf.org/ann/nomcom/3049/ You can enter a nomination by going to the following URL: https://www.ietf.org/group/nomcom/2011/nominate You can also nominate someone by sending an email to nomcom11@ietf.org and giving us their name, email address and the open position you are nominating them for.
