Folks,

I think that volunteering for the nomcom is something that I should do 
as a duty to an organization I feel part of, and an organization I 
often ask for volunteers from myself.

Having serveed on one nomcom in the past, I know something about what 
a complex (that's the best word I can find at the moment) process it 
is and I actually thought for a moment before volunteering again this 
round. But I did.

However, I was quite surprised to be selected. The odds used to not be 
very good, but I was shocked to learn that the pool was only 69 (now 
68) names of volunteers. Of course, if the reset stands I'll have a 
chance to get un-selected again :-)

For an organization that regularly has 1,000 - 2,000 attendees per 
meeting, I don't think 68 is a very encouraging number and I think 
this is something we should address going forward.
