> The 2004 GGF Nominations Committee for 2004 needs your help!  The
deadline
> for volunteering is rapidly approaching:  23 January.  General details
are
> below and even more details can be found at
> http://www.gridforum.org/nomcom (the posting may be delayed a day or
so.)
> Please e-mail Beth Plale if you can help us.  It's a great way to
serve
> the GGF community!
> 
> We are seeking volunteers for the NomCom 2004, the GGF nominating
> committee responsible for recommending candidates to fill positions on
the
> Grid Forum Steering Group (GFSG) of members whose terms are expiring.
> Typically, one third of the GFSG is selected each year.  It is
possible
> that the NomCom will have to fill more or fewer slots than this, due
to
> the creation or elimination of positions by the GFSG, or by
resignations,
> transfers, etc.  GFSG members whose terms are up are: Satoshi
Matsuoka,
> Applications and Programming Models; Andrew Chien, Peer to Peer; Jenny
> Schopf, Scheduling and Resource Management;  Marty Humphrey, Security;
Ian
> Foster, At Large and Andrew Grimshaw, At Large.
> 
> The nominating process is modeled after IETF RFC 2727, "IAB and IESG
> Selection, Confirmation, and Recall Process: Operation of the
Nominating
> and Recall Committees". The GGF GFSG adopted IETF RFC2727, with minor
> revisions, in 2003. The first phase in the process is to establish
this
> year's nominating committee, and that is being done by this year's
NomCom
> Chair, Beth Plale, along with Brian Tierney, past Chair,
> and Cees de Laat, GFSG liaison.
> 
> To qualify as a volunteer, a person must have attended 2 out of the
last 4
> GGF meetings (note: this deviates from 2 out of 3 rule in rfc2727).
NomCom
> members are barred from nomination during the year they serve, even if
> they later resign.  Responsibilities, expected time commitment, and
> confidentiality needs are detailed at http://www.gridforum.org/nomcom.
> 
> Community members who feel they meet these requirements and are
> interested in helping are encouraged to volunteer.  Please e-mail your
> name, telephone number(s), and email address to Beth Plale,
> plale@cs.indiana.edu, by no later than January 23, 2004.  Please put
> "NomCom volunteer" in the subject line.
