> A critically low number of people have accepted nominations for some of the 
> IESG open positions.  There is only one nominee per slot in APP, OPS and TSV, 
> only two in INT and RAI.  Many folks have declined nominations.  
> 
> While the Nomcom appreciates that support for two years of intense service 
> is hard to assure, and while we are aware that there is much support for the 
> incumbents who are standing, the IETF should continually be considering
> which new talent is available for our leadership, and the Nomcom process 
> needs for there to be some review and deliberation. 
> 
> Therefore, we urgently request that more nominees come forward.

> DEADLINES
> Nominations - October 18 
> Questionnaires from nominees - October 25

> Not coincidentally, this is a good time to think over and send your comments
