Fred,
I think we've all done a pretty good job of separating discussion of the
immediate crisis from discussing the broader question of Nomcom and job
criteria. I don't remember whether I've posted about the former --
mostly I think we have no information about their internal process --
nor should we -- and therefore none of us can say much about it.
In any event, the thread with the above Subject line is about the latter
topic, explicitly meant to apply to /later/ Nomcoms...
I think that makes the confirming body the one that, in the final analysis, sets the qualifications required.
As I explained in my response to Jim Galvin, I read RFC 3777 as
establishing an implicit truth to your assessment, but I also think we
need to keep it implicit.
The more serious issue, which is what surfaced /ex/plicitly is whether
Nomcom has to take whatever they are given as job criteria -- developed
by the body of which the job holder is a member -- or whether it is
explicitly authorized to write and use its own criteria for the job.
Again, my reading of this thread looked like a pretty clear community
preference for the latter.
