Have we considered "grooming" folks via the committees? Seems like a better place to allow folks to dip their toes in. But maybe I'm too timid.

Hi NANOG Community,
Nominations are rapidly coming to a close - September 8th is the last day
to submit nominees.
Unfortunately, to follow up on my paragraph about diversity: So far, every
single candidate that has completed the nomination process is a white male.
Having sat in on sessions such as Women in Technology lunch, I know that
this community is passionate about diversity. If you, or a friend, would
like to discuss what it takes to be on the NANOG board, I or my colleagues
would love to speak about it.
If you're ready to enter the nomination process, you can see details below.
Best Regards,
-Dave Temkin, for the NANOG Board of Directors
