Second Call for Nominees
The 2019-20 IETF Nominating Committee (NomCom) is seeking nominations
from now until October 8, 2019. The open positions being considered by this
year's NomCom can be found at the end of this email and also on this year's
NomCom website:
https://datatracker.ietf.org/nomcom/2019/
Nominations may be made by selecting the Nominate link at the top of the
NomCom 2019 home page, or by visiting the following URL:
https://datatracker.ietf.org/nomcom/2019/nominate/
Note: 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/
If you are unable to use the web form, nominations may instead be made by email
to nomcom-19 at ietf dot org. If using 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 are nominating someone other than yourself,
please tell us if we may tell the nominee that you were the one who made the
nomination. If you wish to nominate someone via email for more than one
position, please use separate emails to do so.
Self-nomination is welcome!
Willing nominees will be asked to fill out a questionnaire specific to the position
for which they are nominated. The questionnaires submission deadline of October 15, 2019.
NomCom 2019-20 will follow the policy for "Open Disclosure of Willing
Nominees" described in BCP 10/RFC 7437. As stated in RFC 7437: "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, e.g., anyone with a datatracker account may
access the lists. Additionally, the nomination form asks if we may share your own
name with the nominee. In all other ways, the confidentiality requirements of BCP
10 remain in effect. All feedback and all NomCom deliberations will remain
confidential and will not be disclosed.
There is a field on the form you can mark in order to allow the NomCom to tell
the nominee that you were the one who made the nomination. This defaults to
“no” - so if you don't mark the field we won’t tell.
In order to ensure time to collect sufficient community feedback about each of
the willing nominees, nominations must be received by the NomCom on or before
October 8, 2019.
Please submit your nominations as early as possible for the sake of your
nominees. Note that nominations should not wait for management permission, as
it is easier to decline the nomination than put one in late.
The NomCom appoints individuals to fill open slots on the IAB, IESG, the IETF
