The rest of your question ought to be discussed at the TSVAREA meeting in 
Orlando.

I have looked at the agenda of the TSV Area Open Meeting (on Wednesday from 
9:00am to 11:30am), and it includes the following item:

"- Open Mic about "Area Expectations for the TSV ADs" -- 60 minutes
The questions we will ask the community:
  - what is the existing description we gave to NomCom.
  - does the community agree with it?
  - is it reasonable, or are we asking too much?"

By "description we gave to the NomCom" do you mean the IESG's list of desired 
criteria?  Is the NomCom also going to report on the criteria that they came up 
with, after considering the IESG's input and whatever input they received from 
the community?

I am a little bit confused about the purpose of this meeting.  Is it for the 
IESG to get feedback on their desired criteria, so that those criteria could 
potentially be updated for future years?  Or is it for the nomcom to get 
further information from the community in order to determine the actual 
criteria the nomcom will use (based on input from both the IESG and the 
community) to fill the open TSV AD position this year?

I would like to know the purpose of the meeting, because I believe it would be 
appropriate for me to participate in a discussion of the former topic, but not 
the latter.
