I agree with you, but I was not talking about whether "transparency of process" would be good for the IAOC or not. I was answering the question on why the text about handling appeals (that includes the words in question) only occurs on the IAB and IESG questionnaires. That is why I requested SM to send this feedback to the nomcom so that the *voting members* can decide whether this is something they want to consider during their evaluations. The voting members do want to listen to what the community considers important and they can only do that if people provide their feedback. I request you to send a note to the nomcom11@xxxxxxxx list with your views so that all the voting members can be apprised.
