Hi Donald- You present an interesting idea and I appreciate your desire to avoid a two-class nomcom. If you were to take that approach, I'd suggest allocating points as below:
High points (e.g., 10) - served as a working group chair - served on the IESG or IAB Medium points (e.g., 5) - served as a liaison - authored an IETF Stream RFC - shepherded an IETF Stream RFC - served on a directorate or liaison (there are probably others) Low points (e.g., 1 per meeting) - meeting attendance Giving meeting attendance points 1 per meeting without bound seems like a good idea since someone who has attended 20 IETF meetings may be a lot more plugged in than someone who has attended 5 or some of the 'medium points' items. Just a thought, --aaron On 7/30/10 11:23 PM, Donald Eastlake wrote: > I can see the desire to have some more experience on the nomcom. > > However, I am completely opposed to invidious schemes to divide the nomcom > voting members into two (or more) classes.
