SM and I have merged our 3777 update proposals, and we have posted the merged version. This is BCCed to the NomCom discussion list; please take discussion of this to the main IETF discussion list now.
Reminder: the primary purpose of this is to add the IAOC to some of the points in RFC 3777, since 3777 pre-dates the formation of the IAOC. Some of the IAOC-related processed are described in RFC 4333, so this doesn't cover everything -- but it adds the IAOC to what we think is appropriate. It also incorporates the one Verified erratum against 3777, and clarifies that a few other people should not be eligible to volunteer for the NomCom -- in practical matters, it has little effect, because most of them would not be volunteering anyway. We aim to ask Russ to AD-sponsor this soon. Further discussion is open.
