I just don't understand the "IETF activities" part :-)
I'm employed by Big-Router-Company for 100% of my time, and
I spend 80% of the time writing code, and 20% of my time doing IETF work
(writing drafts..) then I think we'd all agree I work for Big-Router-Company, right?
If I'm contracted to Company1 to write code for 80% of my time,
and I'm contracted to Company2 to write drafts for 20% of my time,
I think we'd say I'm effectively Company1's body.
Whether Company1 has any other IETF people or not, is another question :-)
Doesn't matter that I write code.
The point is that I probably can't be told what to do as a nomcom person by
Company2.
I am neutral as to whether the NomCom should have any publically stated rule
or not. I don't think I had a rule as NomCom chair, but I did ask when it
was unclear, and the 50% mark was important to
Yes, there are many ways to game this, but not in an honourable way.
(And I've already disclosed to the NomCom chair, btw)
