[NANOG-announce] Call for Nominations for NANOG Steering Committee 2008/9

  • From: Philip Smith
  • Date: Tue Aug 12 06:35:03 2008

Hello everyone,

Elections for three of the six elected positions on the NANOG Steering 
Committee will be held in October 2008. The currently-serving Steering 
Committee members whose terms are expiring are Joe Provo, Randy Bush and 
Philip Smith. Randy and Philip have also served two consecutive terms 
so, as per the charter, they cannot be considered for re-election until 
October 2009.

The NANOG Steering Committee works closely with Merit to promote, 
support and improve NANOG. The Steering Committee is responsible for the 
selection of the Program Committee and the Mailing List Committee, and 
is the community's instrument for ensuring that NANOG as an organisation 
remains open, relevant and useful.

If you care about NANOG as a forum, and think you would like to take a 
turn at volunteering your time to help make it better, please consider 
either volunteering yourself or nominating someone else.

For more information about the role of the Steering Committee, or to 
find out more about what's involved in being an Steering Committee 
member, please consult the NANOG charter or contact someone who is 
already serving and ask them directly.

HOW TO NOMINATE SOMEONE

You may nominate someone else, or yourself. There is no limit to the 
number of nominations that may be submitted by a single person. 
Individual nominees will be contacted directly to confirm that they are 
willing to accept the nomination, and so that they can supply a
