Hi Margaret,
I will answer as the agenda below is out of the TSVAREA session.

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?
The IESG has sent these requirements [1] to the nomcom, as stated on
that site. That's what is meant with "what is the existing
description we gave to NomCom".
The idea of the meeting is to gather community feedback about the
requirements for the TSV AD position. It is not an IESG steered
discussion, but the intention is give to time and space to let the
community discuss.
I have to confess that the wording isn't fully fledged on the TSVAREA
agenda and can be misunderstood. I will work on that.
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?
That is a good question and my personal answer would be definitely for
future years, as we cannot tell anything about the details of this
year's outcome, as the work of the nomcom is confidential.
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.
I would like to see you there, as well as many other interested
community members.
Thanks,
Martin
