Dear RIPE Participant, RIPE will choose its next chair and a vice chair by way of a nominating committee. Ten volunteers, randomly selected from the community, will make that choice with the help of the whole community. These ten people plus some non-voting liaisons and advisors will form the NomCom. The NomCom will start to work around January 2025 and make its selection soon after the next RIPE meeting in May of that year. The job of the NomCom is to select people who have what it takes and also have the support of the community.
As chair of the 2025 NomCom, my job is to organise the work and help the volunteers with making their choice. Therefore I call on you to volunteer. Ideally, we are looking for about 100 volunteers representing a broad range of RIPE participants. Ten of those people will be randomly selected to serve on the NomCom. To qualify for serving as a voting volunteer you have to have attended three of the five most recent RIPE meetings including the meeting taking place next week in Prague. For details about the procedures and duties of the NomCom you may refer to: https://www.ripe.net/publications/docs/ripe-787/ and https://www.ripe.net/publications/docs/ripe-788/ The deadline for volunteering is Sunday, December 1st 2024. The only way to volunteer is by using the form at https://collab.ripenomcom.org/apps/forms/s/gYewEips3KcbrgL7a4EXHbAp Read more about the NOMCOM 2025 at https://ripenomcom.org/ .
