Nomcom feedback to appointees not up for renewal

Howdy,

During yesterday's plenary, this year's Nomcom chair, Michael
Richardson, made a comment that I responded to at the mic.  I'd like to
see whether there is interest in pursuing it:

Michael noted that the two-year cycle for appointees means that those
/not/ up for renewal go at least 18 months without feedback.  He put
forward the need for feedback to them sooner than that, but asserted
that having Nomcom do it would not be appropriate.

As a natural consequence of its interviewing process, Nomcoms always get
quite a bit of information about /all/ appointees, not just the ones
currently up for renewal.  No one else acquires this kind of information
regularly and reliably.

Of the 4 nomcoms I've been on, at least two acted on this feedback,
having a directed conversation with at least one such appointee each time.

So I suggest that providing explicit feedback to all appointees not up
for renewal become a regular part of nomcom's deliverables.
