Mike:
As Joel already said, the recall process is not dependent on the wishes of the
IAOC.
Further, please note that IAB, IESG, and IAOC members cannot be recall petition
signers. RFC 3777 says:
1. At any time, at least 20 members of the IETF community, who are
qualified to be voting members of a nominating committee, may
request by signed petition (email is acceptable) to the Internet
Society President the recall of any sitting IAB or IESG member.
According to RFC 3777, sitting members of the IESG and IAB are not qualified to
be voting members of NomCom. And, there is a long-standing tradition that IAOC
members will not serve on NomCom. There is also an I-D that just finished IETF
Last Call to formally exclude IAOC members from serving on NomCom.

While the IAOC has not discussed this formally, I agree with you. The
situation did change when we were able to talk with Marshall.
I assume at this point the IAOC would like to pursue the recall option? If
not, please be very clear about it to the list as I haven't actually seen a
request from the IAOC for that process to proceed as far as I can tell.
If you'd rather just wait from him to resign, if in fact he does, then please
indicate that. I believe neither you nor Dave Crocker nor Scott Bradner (the
only IOAC members that I think have commented on this issue on list so far)
have actually specifically asked for or signed the recall on the list.
