I disagree; short of funding candidates or reducing the workload (the
latter, IMO, would be more appropriate), the list of willing candidates
is a significant part of the problem.

That is a kind of a voting process. First, you have to have attended a
certain number of previous IETFs to be eligible for NomCom participation
(which is not unlike the 'attend X meetings before you can vote' rule in
the IEEE and other organizations). How the NomCom reaches consensus is
not specified, but may involve votes.
