I’m a bit late to this and apologies for that, but having read and agree with a lot of the discussion I would like to make a suggestion: The NomCom is selected randomly by whatever ‘name in the hat’ process, however to volunteer to be on the NomCom you must have been active in the RIPE community over the last x years by either attending y RIPE meetings or being active on a RIPE mailing list (or some defined criteria). The NomCom review and select the candidate who is presented to the community to endorse or reject. This keeps the process lightweight, open and removes the wgcc involvement, unless they want to put their name in the hat of course. Thoughts? Regards, Bijal > randy > </blockquote></div>
