[ripe-list] NomCom Volunteers and Selection

Daniel

I am glad you found my brief suggestion useful and thanks so much for
including it in the report.
I understand the time constraints and am at your disposal if you want to do
this kind of research in the future. It doesn't have to be too elaborate,
we can use a brief survey or a couple of interviews as the first step.
