This only appears to be non-operational at first glance.

As there are every year, there are IETF Area Director seats which
the nomcom needs nominations to fill.  Specifically, we need people
with operational experience, and we need nominees in the Internet
and Routing areas. 

Volunteer in your own defense, or nominate someone you think is
smart and has been slacking lately.  All you need to do is mail a
name and email address to nomcom@ietf.org.

The rest of this is the announcement which Bernard Aboba wrote for
distribution within the IETF:

_____________________________________________________________________________


The 2000 Nominations Committee is now
soliciting nominations for the open
slots on the IESG and IAB. 

Since WG chairs work with the members of
the IESG and IAB on a regular basis, and
are intimately familiar with the IETF
process, chairs have unique insight.
Please take the time, even if it is
only a few moments, to send us your
thoughts. 

Members of the community are encouraged to 
nominate candidates for any of the positions 
which are up for re-filling: 

IESG Terms ending in March, 2001: 

Fred Baker        IETF Chair
Scott Bradner     Transport
Randy Bush        Operations & Management
Patrik Faltstrom  Applications
Thomas Narten     Internet
Dave Oran         Routing
Jeff Schiller     Security

IAB Terms ending in March, 2001: 

Harald Alvestrand 
Ran Atkinson
Rob Austein
Steve Deering
Tony Hain 
Geoff Huston

Members of the community are encouraged to contact the
nomcom to nominate someone for any of these positions, 
to provide input relating to potential candidates,
or to provide comments regarding the past performance
of incumbents, which will be considered
during the deliberations of the nominating committee. 

Comments sent to the nominations committee will be
kept in confidence. As noted in RFC 2727 "all 
deliberations and supporting information that 
relates to specific nominees, candidates, 
and confirmed candidates are confidential." 

Self-nominations are accepted. The deadline for
nominations is midnight Monday, December 16, 2000. 
Early input is desirable so that candidates may be 
interviewed during IETF 49. 

The members of the NomCom can be contacted individually  at
the addresses below or collectively at nomcom@ietf.org.  
Additionally, the members of the NomCom will be identified 
at the IETF by a marker (as yet undetermined) on their name 
tags.  People are encouraged to take advantage of the 
opportunity to talk to the members of the NomCom about 
nominations and other issues related to the IAB and IESG 
membership.

membership who are not sitting in an open position.

serves as a non-voting liaison.
