Personally I think that at least for the incoming 2010 nomcom having a clear
well defined criteria that can be applied unambiguously is more important than
the precise details of what the criteria is. This proposed rule seems perfectly
reasonable for use this time around.

RFC 3777 requires that voting members of the nominating committee
(NomCom) be selected from volunteers that have attended at least three
of the last five IETF meetings. The IAOC is conducting a day pass
experiment, making it necessary to augment the NomCom eligibility rules
to address IETF participants that make use of a day pass. An update to
RFC 3777 to will be needed to address this situation if at the end of
the experiment the IAOC decides to make day passes a regular meeting
registration alternative; however, a BCP update for an experiment is
overkill.
The IESG observes that attending a single day of the IETF meeting is not
sufficient for a new participant to learn the culture of the IETF or the
qualities that would make an effective IETF leader. Further, ongoing
exposure to the IETF standards process is necessary to appreciate the
significance and importance of cross-area review.
The eligibility requirements of volunteers for NomCom voting member
positions are provided in RFC 3777, which includes:
14. Members of the IETF community must have attended at least 3 of
the last 5 IETF meetings in order to volunteer.
In the context of the day pass experiment, this is interpreted to mean:
14. IETF participants must have attended at least 3 of the last 5
IETF meetings in order to volunteer, and that use of a day pass
does not count as IETF meeting attendance.
