One of the roles of the Internet Society (ISOC) President is to
appoint the IETF Nominations Committee chair. This is done through
consultation with members of the IETF community, input from past IETF NomComm
Chairs, as well as from the ISOC Board.
It gives me great pleasure to announce that Andrew Lange has agreed
to serve as the 2007 IETF Nominations Committee chair. Andrew can
be reached at <andrew.lange@alcatel.com>.
A Call for Nominations for this committee will be sent shortly to the IETF
Announcement list; and a list of the IESG, IAB and IAOC seats to be filled will
also be published. Please give serious consideration to possible candidates for
these posts. In the interim, please make your suggestions known to Andrew, who
will share them with the committee when seated.
The NomComm process is an ambitious undertaking and it is important
that the entire IETF community assist as much as possible. Thank
you in advance for your support and a sincere thank you to Andrew for agreeing
to take on this important responsibility.
Lynn St. Amour
President & CEO
