Are you sure you will want to use the same nomcom for 'several 
functions' or instead use the same set of nomcom volunteers to maybe 
constitute different nomcoms for different functions, especially if they 
are substantively different, and all very important. This will lead to a 
greater diffusion of nominating power. Also often nomcom decisions for 
different functions may need to be made independent of each other.

The process bottleneck is not of constituting a nomcom from among those 
who volunteer, or the work of the nomcom itself. The bottleneck mostly 
is in people volunteering. So if you enable yourself to use the same set 
of volunteers to form multiple nomcoms as required, that will work as well.

Also like McTim and Jeanette, I really do not think any of these things 
require a charter amendment vote. They can be done as the charter stand now.

Just my 2 cents... Parminder
