ARIN is issuing a last call for General Members in good standing to
nominate candidates for two (2) seats on the Board of Trustees, five (5)
seats on the Advisory Council, and one (1) seat on the Number Resource
Organization (NRO) Number Council that become open when current terms
expire on 31 December 2011.
The Board of Trustees and Advisory Council election has a Nomination
Committee (NomCom) that is responsible for identifying, recruiting, and
certifying the slate of candidates to be placed in nomination before the
membership for election. This year's NomCom members are: Board of
Trustee members Paul Andersen and Paul Vixie, Advisory Council members
Chris Grundemann and Chris Morrow, and general member volunteers Dmitry
Kohmanyuk, John Kuhn, and Tina Morris. Paul Vixie is serving as NomCom
Chair.
New Board, Advisory Council, and NRO NC terms begin 1 January 2012 with
the opening of the two Board seats held by Timothy Denton and Bill
Woodcock and the five Advisory Council seats held by Dan Alexander, Marc
Crandall, Bill Darte, David Farmer, and John Sweeting. ARIN Board and
Advisory Council incumbents may be re-elected for consecutive terms. Ron
da Silva’s seat for the NRO NC also becomes open this year.
