I don't see any issue with NOMCON term limits. The question to ask is why is there a NOMCON at all. Why not do what every other major professional body does and hold elections with the electorate being defined in the same way that NOMCON membership is? I am not aware that this procedure has caused significant problems in the IEEE or the ABA. Those are also volunteer organizations. > -----Original Message----- > From: todd glassey [mailto:tglassey@xxxxxxxxxxxxx] > Sent: Tuesday, September 05, 2006 9:11 AM > To: Bill Fenner; ietf@xxxxxxxx > Subject: Re: NOMCOM term limits...
