I have read the most recent version of this document, and I support this experiment. I find this part of Section 2 confusing: The experiment will initially cover the IETF Nominating Committee cycle that begins in 2021. As soon as the 2021-2022 Nominating Committee is seated, the IESG must consult the 2021-2022 Nominating Committee chair and the 2020-2021 Nominating Committee chair and publish a report on the results of the experiment. Points to be considered are whether the experiment has produced a sufficiently large and diverse pool of individuals, and whether enough of those individuals have volunteered to produce a representative Nominating Committee with good knowledge of the IETF. If possible, a comparison with results from the previous procedure (i.e., RFC 8713) should be made. As soon as the next NomCom Chair is seated, the IESG is going to consent with them and Barbara about the results of the in-progress experiment. At that point, next NomCom Chair will not have issued the call for volunteers, so the number of volunteers will not yet be known. I suspect this is an off by one error, and this review it to happen as soon as the 2022-2023 NomCom Chair is named.

Abstract This document defines a process experiment under RFC 3933 that temporarily updates the criteria for qualifying volunteers to participate in the IETF Nominating Committee. It therefore also updates the criteria for qualifying signatories to a community recall petition. The purpose is to make the criteria more flexible in view of increasing remote participation in the IETF and a reduction in face-to-face meetings. The experiment is of fixed duration and will apply to one, or at most two, Nominating Committee cycles. This document temporarily varies the rules in RFC 8713.
