> The random selection process coupled with the relatively small number > of volunteers is an interesting factor in all of this Nomcom is a group of people randomly selected from among a set of folks whose only qualifications are that they want to be on nomcom and they like traveling to meetings. I've never understood the logic behind the theory that this is supposed to lead to a good slate of candidates. > The Giant Reset of 2006 Oh I remember that. For fairness, we replaced one randomly selected group of folks with another randomly selected group of folks from the same volunteer pool. We wouldn't want to end up with the wrong randomly selected group, would we? That's another bit of logic I never understood. Given that the whole process is whacky, fine tuning of various little details probably won't make much of a difference. _______________________________________________ IETF mailing list IETF@xxxxxxxx https://www.ietf.org/mailman/listinfo/ietf
