I’ve heard this there is a little confusion about the timeline for appointments if this document is approved soon and the current NomCom is asked to seat trustees, so I’d like to suggest the following clarification: OLD The terms of the appointed trustees from IETF NomCom shall be three years. The initial selection shall be one, two, and three year terms in order to initially stagger the terms and thus miminize potential annual Trustee turnover. The other appointments by the IESG and the ISOC Board of Trustees shall be two year terms, with the initial terms being one and two years, respectively. NEW The terms of the appointed trustees from IETF NomCom shall be three years. The initial selection shall be one, two, and three year terms in order to initially stagger the terms and thus miminize potential annual Trustee turnover. The other appointments by the IESG and the ISOC Board of Trustees shall be two year terms, with the initial terms being one and two years, respectively. The term lengths of initial appointees should be measured from the First IETF of the year in which they are seated even if they are appointed after the First IETF of the year.
