Hi IETF, It's been brought to my attention that my formal NomCom announcements are boring and few people read them. I blame my predecessor NomCom chairs, whom I have freely plagiarized. To try something new, I've created this email all by myself. This is my 2nd email asking for nominations for IESG, IAB, LLC, and IETF Trust positions. I won't repeat all the things said in the first call. If you want to read it, it's here: https://mailarchive.ietf.org/arch/msg/ietf-announce/epfapZaDMv48eb7j_6q68YYXPYc/ To see who has currently accepted nominations for positions, go to: https://datatracker.ietf.org/nomcom/2020/nominate/ If you take a look at this page, you'll see there are no accepted nominations for Transport AD, and only 1 each for Ops AD and IETF Chair. While the listed Ops AD and Chair nominees are decidedly wonderful people, it's very difficult for NomCom to have heated argument and debate under such conditions. A complete absence of nominees is even more challenging. Please help us rectify this situation. Below is a list of people currently in the open positions, with an asterisk next to the names of people who have stated they will not run for that position this year. You'll note there are several people without an asterisk but not on the list of people who have accepted a nomination. That's ok. For now. Since we're all experts at quantum computing (right?), we should have no problem with this. This state of principled uncertainty *will* end by the October 13 deadline, when all who wish to be considered MUST have provided acceptance and a questionnaire response.
