For those at the IETF-89 Administrative Plenary, Jari mentioned that the IETF
has a delegate on the ICANN NomCom (I happen to be filling that this year). In
this role, I wanted to let folks know that this is the primary time for people
to express interest in volunteering to serve in various ICANN leadership
positions. I have participated in IETF and ICANN for a number of years, I have
seen how important it is to have people with both competitance and interest in
working toward improving the Internet in leadership in both IETF and ICANN -
now is the time of year for folks to think about doing this in the ICANN realm.
I could go into a batch of details of about the ICANN organizations or
positions that are being selected by the ICANN NomCom but it's probably best
for folks to look at the web page for the details. That web page is:

If anyone is interested in helping make the Internet better by serving in
ICANN, please look at the above web site or catch up with me in the halls at
IETF-89 (I'll probably be the only one wearing a green ICANN cap for the rest
of the week at the meeting :-) or send me email (or all the above).
