IAB and IESG Selection, Confirmation, and Recall Process: Revision of the Nominating and Recall Committees Timeline
RFC 5078, “IAB and IESG Selection, Confirmation, and Recall Process: Revision of the Nominating and Recall Committees Timeline”, is an Informational document published in October 2007 by S. Dawkins. It updates RFC 3777. It has been obsoleted by RFC 7437 — refer to the newer document for the authoritative version. The canonical text is published by the RFC Editor.
Abstract
RFC 3777 defines the Nominations and Recall Committee's (NomCom's) operation, and includes a sample timeline for major steps in the NomCom process that meets the minimum normative requirements for the process. Recent NomComs have been scheduling based on the sample timeline, and the chairs of the last three NomComs -- Danny McPherson (2004-2005), Ralph Droms (2005-2006), and Andrew Lange (2006-2007) -- have all reported that this timeline is very aggressive and suggested starting earlier. This document restructures the sample timeline, but makes no normative process changes. This memo provides information for the Internet community.
