I don't see a reason why it would be inappropriate to ask them
directly whether they're willing to volunteer again.

However I think that the words "At least 25 volunteers, i.e. 5
volunteers for each nomcom seat, are required for running the random
process" imply volunteering specifically for being part of a specific
nomcom with a particular statement of purpose.

Greetings,
Norbert
