There are two other interpretations of this situation, neither of which I
think is true, but we should consider the possibility. The first is the TSV
is too narrow a field to support an area director and as such should be
folded in with another area. The second is if all of the qualified people
have moved on and no one is interested in building the expertise the IESG
feels is lacking, then industry and academia have voted with their feet: the
TSV is irrelevant and should be closed.
Since I believe neither is the case, it sounds like the IESG requirements are
too tight.
I don't believe the requirements are too tight. *Someone* one the IESG needs to
understand congestion control.
The likely possibility is that many qualified people failed to get sufficient
employer support to be able to volunteer. It's at least a 50% time committment.
