Agreed.  Recording that somewhere is actually useful for use with recall
processes that need nomcom eligible to sign.  Then people can actually find
out if they are on the list.

I would write that one should contribute at least three times during every
calendar year, and say that that attendance counts.
To remain eligible, I had that one needed to attend once a year; it might be
worth making that some kind of sliding window of three.  While I am open to
rates of attendance less than 1/3, I don't think the community is.

The situation where we might like to think a bit about is where someone
attends meeting IETF92 (in March 2015), and then misses four meetings in a
row (contributing in other ways the whole time), attending IETF97 and
IETF98.
That's being away for 1.5 years: a difficult pregnancy (such as enforced bed
             rest), plus a year of infant that can't travel.

Just before IETF99, picking for nomcom 2017, one ought to be eligible,
provided that one never became in-eligible.

The question is, just prior to IETF96 (the one in Summer 2016), when the 2016
nomcom is picked, would one be eligible?  One hasn't attended in the past
three meetings, but a) did attend four meetings ago, b) intend to attend
IETF97.   I'd like to think that one could be eligible, but in the case, I
care more that the person doesn't get made in-eligible for 2017.

I'm confused how you came up with four years.
