I was just told that the link to the bylaws does not work.  Here is one that works:

The IAB would therefore like to ask the community for volunteers to serve on the ICANN NomCom. Our current appointee, Russ Mundy is unable to serve another term.  The IAB thanks Russ for his service and wishes him well.

The selected candidate will serve on the ICANN NomCom on personal title; however, we will be looking for a candidate who has an understanding of the interests of the technical community.

In addition, each NomCom determines a number of its own operational procedures, including the role of the NomCom in recruiting and selecting candidates for ICANN leadership positions.  Based on Russ Mundy's experience, the time commitment is significant.  The selected person should be prepared to participate in the recruitment of potential candidates for ICANN leadership positions (a few hours per month November through April); a few hours on conference calls each month (and even more near selection); ten or more hours per month reviewing and assessing candidate qualifications in April, May, and June; and multiple days of face-to-face meetings of the full NomCom at each of the three ICANN meetings.
