Am I alone in being both surprised and disappointed at the small number of candidates that Nomcom has for a number of the IESG positions?
Disappointed? No, I'm sure many IETFers feel the same way.
Surprised? Maybe. I'm personally not surprised: being AD is basically a full-time job, and unless one is independently wealthy a candidate needs support from his/her employer for a 2-year (and often 4-year) commitment. Conservatively, that's a $600,000 investment for a 2-year term, and you don't even get your logo in the credits for the trouble. It's hard to make the business case for that.
