RE: NomCom needs your feedback!

["STARK, BARBARA H" <bs7652@xxxxxxx>]

My apologies. I should have been more clear. We track the ietf list to understand community thoughts on broader community topics.

Feedback on specific nominees should all be provided through the other (non public email list) feedback mechanisms I described.

Public discussion of candidates will not be used as input to NomCom. Because many people have biases against this sort of public display, such discussion should not be considered as benefiting any nominee who is being praised, nor harming any nominee that people say bad things about.

Thx,

Barbara

Hi IETF,

NomCom is considering nominees for AD positions, IETF Chair, IAB, LLC

Board, and IETF Trust. We need more input from the community both on

specific nominees and on over-arching topics regarding what the

community wants from these specific groups and wants from its

leadership in general. We need *your* input.

 

** Deadline for community feedback is Friday November 20. **

 

We've paid attention to discussions on the ietf list. Issues raised there

have been brought up in interviews.

 

We've also asked questions of nominees based on feedback received,

and based on the "Topics" that people said were important.

We're listening to you.

 

But most of the input to date has come from a few consistently vocal

people. We need to hear from more of you.

 

I scheduled our office hours during the 2 weeks before next week's IETF,

because IETF week is so busy. We have one more left (18:00-19:00 UTC

November 11). No-one but NomCom members showed up for our first 3. ☹

If there is demand for more office hours, I'll schedule them; but this

really doesn't seem to be the preferred format for input.

 

Most input is coming in as either

- email to nomcom20@xxxxxxxx

- feedback on https://datatracker.ietf.org/nomcom/2020/feedback/

On the feedback page, the specific nominees are all listed at the top.

General Topics are at the bottom.

We pay attention to all the comments we get through these channels.

 

I'll also try to hang out in Gather.Town during IETF breaks next week.

I'm not going to have a specific NomCom area in Gather.Town, because it

was really lonely hanging out there during IETF 108.

But please feel free to hunt me down and bend my ear -- on NomCom

issues or just to chat.

I miss seeing all of y'all!

Barbara
