I disagree; short of funding candidates or reducing the workload (the latter, IMO, would be more appropriate), the list of willing candidates is a significant part of the problem. ... > The problem with voting is that the IETF does not have a membership list, so > there is no real basis for running a "vote".

First, you have to have attended a certain number of previous IETFs to be eligible for NomCom participation (which is not unlike the 'attend X meetings before you can vote' rule in the IEEE and other organizations). How the NomCom reaches consensus is not specified, but may involve votes.
