Hi all, Given that this work is supposed to be voluntary without compensation, who do you expect to be able to participate in the design team ready to serve and during what timeframe in 2015? Some of the people with the right experience, involved in the root zone signing (as for example TCR's) already today have trouble finding the money to take part in the key ceremonies every 6th month. Expecting professional and experienced people with expert knowledge about DNS, DNSSEC, key management among other things, to be able to spend about 15 per cent of their weekly working time without getting paid seems to me a bit optimistic. Furthermore the criteria states: "Applicants to the Design Team would be representing themselves, not any organization or interest with which they may be associated". From my point of view, that should mean that if I don't get support from the organization where I currently work, I will have to pay for my participation from my own pockets, and apply for leave from my duties with .SE while doing this. Even though I am very interested it is impossible financially.
ICANN did use an experienced design team defining the design for the first root zone signing in 2010, I am a bit curious why ICANN aren't reusing the same design team, given the fact that they already know all about the details behind the choices made in 2010 and that the current design works well.
