I can't speak to baby kissing but the above statement is true
only if you exclude the IETF Chair from "IESG member or AD".
Perhaps we could change it if we really wanted to, but we should
face the fact --and I hope that Nomcoms understand-- that the
IETF Chair role has expanded to include a great deal of public
representation of the IETF and, indeed, public politics.
