[governance] Call for Volunteers - Nomcom for Appeals Team

Wed Aug 27 14:11:09 EDT 2008

Thanks everyone who volunteered - looks to me as if we just hit 25 volunteer
members!

However I'll leave the call for volunteers open until midnight on Tuesday
September 2, so if you would like your name added it is not too late. We
will publish the names and details for the random selection shortly after
that.

Thanks,

Ian Peter

Thanks everyone who volunteered, we are up to 16 names now, only nine more
needed! 

So if you haven't done so already, please volunteer for the nomcom pool now
so we can move on to the next step!. For most people who put their name
forward, there will be no work to do at all - for the five who are chosen to
eventually form the NomCom, I would imagine little more than an hour of your
time spread over a couple of weeks will be necessary. 

Please help make up the numbers. Either send an email to the list or to me
personally.

Thanks

Ian Peter

Call for Volunteers - Nomcom for Appeals Team.

This is a call for volunteers for the IGC NomCom for appointment of a new
Appeals Team. To get this started, we need at least 25 volunteers. Either
send your name to this list or to me by personal email.

The process is described in full at
http://www.igcaucus.org/nomcom-process.htm. But briefly,

We need to appoint a new 5 member Appeals Team as their current term has
expired. The appointments to the Appeals Team will be made by a Nominating
Committee (nomcom) of five randomly chosen members of the volunteer pool for
this task 

To choose the NomCom, we need a pool of a minimum of 25 volunteers. 5 people
from the pool will be chosen via a pre-determined algorithm to serve as the
NomCom and make the appointments, working with David Goldstein as
independent non voting Chair. Those chosen will not be able to stand for
Appeals Team this time round - other volunteers not chosen are able to
stand.

As far as I can see the only members excluded from volunteering are the
Co-ordinators. Members of the previous appeals team, as they are ineligible
to stand again, are able to volunteer for the NomCom. So are members of
previous nomcoms.

Everyone is urged to volunteer. So please consider volunteering by
submitting your name now by return email. We cannot proceed with this
overdue appeals team replacement until we have 25 volunteers. Your
participation here will help us to get this task underway.

Thanks,

Ian Peter
