Re: IAOC: delegating ex-officio responsibility

Russ,


> The proposed update to BCP 101 permits further delegation of the IAOC voting position.  While I do not see myself taking advantage of this new feature, I do think we should give future IETF Chairs this option.  It is a cohesive part of the work that can be delegated.  Some coordination between the IETF Chair and the delegate would be necessary, but the time commitment would be significantly less than participating in the IAOC and a subset of its committees.


This prompts me to ask a question.  Who would the IETF Chair delegate this responsibility to?  The draft doesn't specify.  

An Area Director is the obvious answer, except from what I understand ADs are also extremely busy.  This trades one problem for another.  If it is someone not on the IESG, then this is effectively turning into giving the IESG another IAOC slot to select. 

As a general comment on the draft, I think it needs to be clear as to who the delegation can be made to and how much authority is delegated.

Thanks,
Bob
