I'm not sure I even get the point why it was written and sent, as there was no requirement for explanation. Why would even one, much less two or three people think it was a good idea? On Mon, 08 Nov 2021 17:34:25 -0500 Martin Hannigan wrote On Mon, Nov 8, 2021 at 17:25

Thank you, John. However, the first words in the quoted portion of the process are: “In consultation with ARIN’s GC”. Nothing in that process prevents the Chair from asking the GC for a draft, then sending it to the nominee as-is. Not that it matters. Whether you believe it sounds like a lawyer

Mike, I will disagree. The proposal is to require an explanation. The letter you got was not an explanation, it was a clear exercise of the nominating committees option not to explain themselves if they choose not to. If they were required to provide an explanation to candidates, I do not

Perhaps we should consider whether we still want nomcom, it might be hard to find volunteers now that public flaying is a real possibility. The alternative I can think of being self nomination with threshold of supporting members. Perhaps the nomcom job should be mostly ensuring objective

Agreed. This is utterly embarrassing. How did they think this is an appropriate response given the conversation going on this list? Perhaps lawyers? What needs to be done to fix this so if those being rejected request transparency that transparency is provided? On Thu, Nov 4, 2021 at 3:18 PM
