The 2014-15 Nominating Committee (NomCom) is seeking nominations from now until January 26, 2015, 23:59UTC for the position of 3rd Routing Area Director. Please see below for this much shorter NomCom schedule. For background on the request for a third routing area director please see: http://www.ietf.org/mail-archive/web/ietf/current/msg91370.html http://www.ietf.org/mail-archive/web/ietf/current/msg91030.html http://www.ietf.org/mail-archive/web/ietf/current/msg91015.html {A note about candidates that have previously been nominated: a number of people were nominated to the role of 2nd Routing AD. The NOMCOM Chair will be contacting those candidates to determine if they wish to stand for the third position; if they do, they will be listed for feedback. Additional feedback is welcome; but no previous comments have been lost.} Nominations may be made by selecting the Nominate link at the top of the Nomcom 2014 home page, or by visiting the following URL: https://datatracker.ietf.org/nomcom/2014/nominate/ {Note that nominations made using the web tool require an ietf.org datatracker account. You can create a datatracker ietf.org account if you don't have one already by visiting the following URL: https://datatracker.ietf.org/accounts/create/ } Nominations may also be made by email to nomcom14@xxxxxxxx. If you use email, please include the word "Nominate" in the Subject and indicate in the email who is being nominated, their email address (to confirm acceptance of the nomination), and the position for which you are making the nomination. If you wish to nominate more than one person, please use separate emails to do so. Self-nominations are welcome! NomCom 2014-15 will follow the policy for "Open Disclosure of Willing Nominees" described in RFC 5680. As stated in RFC 5680: "The list of nominees willing to be considered for positions under review in the current Nomcom cycle is not confidential". Willing nominees for each position will be listed in a publicly accessible way - anyone with a datatracker account may access the lists. In all other ways, the confidentiality requirements of RFC 3777/BCP10 remain in effect. All feedback and all Nomcom deliberations will remain confidential and will not be disclosed. NOTE THAT NOMINATIONS SHOULD NOT WAIT FOR MANAGEMENT PERMISSION. Nominees should Accept/Decline as soon as they decide they wish to consider it, and if they do not have management (or family) support, then they can withdraw. SCHEDULE FOR THIRD ROUTING AREA (at 23:59 UTC): also see calendar at: http://goo.gl/D3q2CY - Tuesday, January 20, 2015 - open nominations - Monday, January 26, 2015 - deadline for nominations/open for comments - Monday, February 2, 2015 - deadline for questionnaires - Monday, February 13, 2015 - deadline for comments on persons, and requirements - Target week for interviews Tuesday, February 3, 2016. (We are aware of IAB workshop that occurs last week of January) Some additional details from the IESG request: - The IESG is currently proposing to move three working groups from the INT area to the RTG area: L2TPEXT, LISP, and TRILL - There is a considerable increase in management-related work in the RTG area. Specifically, there are a lot of new YANG models being written. Although the coordination of YANG across the IETF falls as the responsibility of the OPS ADs (specifically the Management AD) it is expected that the RTG ADs will need to work on an increasing number of YANG documents so familiarity with YANG should be added to the list of desirable (but not mandatory) skills. - The reasoning behind the addition of a third RTG AD is that the load in the RTG area is currently unsustainably high. The placement of a third AD will have the effect of spreading that load such that the time requirement may now be more consistent with the work loads of ADs in other areas.
