Abstract
摘要
The process by which the members of the IAB and IESG are selected, confirmed, and recalled is specified. The evolution of the process has relied principally on oral tradition as a means by which the lessons learned could be passed on to successive committees. This document is a self-consistent, organized compilation of the process as it is known today.
规定了选择、确认和召回IAB和IESG成员的流程。这一进程的演变主要依靠口头传统，以此作为一种手段，将所吸取的经验教训传递给历届委员会。本文件是一份自洽、有组织的过程汇编，正如今天所知。

This document supercedes RFC2027, the first complete specification of the process by which members of the IAB and IESG are selected, confirmed, and recalled. Prior to that time, a single paragraph in RFC1602 is the extent to which the process had been formally recorded.
本文件取代RFC2027，RFC2027是IAB和IESG成员选择、确认和召回过程的第一个完整规范。在此之前，RFC1602中的一个段落是过程被正式记录的程度。
This revision is based on the experience of the 1996 Nominating Committee, the first committee to operate according to RFC2027. The following two assumptions of that specification are also true for this revision.
本次修订基于1996年提名委员会的经验，该委员会是根据RFC2027运作的第一个委员会。该规范的以下两个假设也适用于本次修订。
(1) The Internet Research Task Force (IRTF) and Internet Research Steering Group (IRSG) are not a part of the process described here.
(1) 互联网研究特别工作组（IRTF）和互联网研究指导小组（IRSG）不是本文所述过程的一部分。
(2) The organization (and re-organization) of the IESG is not a part of the process described here.
(2) IESG的组织（和重新组织）不是本文所述流程的一部分。
The time frames specified here use IETF meetings as a frame of reference. The time frames assume that the IETF meets at least once per year with that meeting occurring during the North American Spring time, i.e., the IETF meets at least on or about March of each year.
此处规定的时间框架使用IETF会议作为参考框架。时间框架假设IETF每年至少召开一次会议，该会议在北美春季召开，即IETF至少在每年3月召开会议。
The remainder of this document is divided into four major topics as follows.
本文件其余部分分为以下四个主要主题。
General This a set of rules and constraints that apply to the selection and confirmation process as a whole.
一般这是一组适用于整个选择和确认过程的规则和约束。
Nominating Committee Selection This is the process by which volunteers from the IETF community are recognized to serve on the committee that nominates candidates to serve on the IESG and IAB.
提名委员会选择这是来自IETF社区的志愿者被认可为提名IESG和IAB候选人的委员会成员的过程。
Nominating Committee Operation This is the set of principles, rules, and constraints that guide the activities of the nominating committee, including the confirmation process.
提名委员会运作这是一套指导提名委员会活动的原则、规则和约束，包括确认过程。
Member Recall This is the process by which the behavior of a sitting member of the IESG or IAB may be questioned, perhaps resulting in the removal of the sitting member.
成员回忆这是一个过程，通过该过程，IESG或IAB的现任成员的行为可能会受到质疑，可能导致现任成员被免职。
A final section describes how this document differs from its predecessor: RFC2027.
最后一节介绍了本文档与其前身RFC2027的不同之处。
The following set of rules apply to the selection and confirmation process as a whole. If necessary, a paragraph discussing the interpretation of each rule is included.
以下一组规则适用于整个选择和确认过程。如有必要，将包括一段讨论每项规则的解释。
(1) The principal functions of the nominating committee are to review the open IESG and IAB positions and to either nominate its incumbent or recruit a superior candidate.
(1) 提名委员会的主要职能是审查IESG和IAB的空缺职位，提名其现任职位或招聘一名更优秀的候选人。
The nominating committee does not select the open positions to be reviewed; it is instructed as to which positions to review.
提名委员会没有选择要审查的空缺职位；它被指示检查哪些职位。
At a minimum, the nominating committee will be given the title of the position to be reviewed. The nominating committee may be given a desirable set of qualifications for the candidate nominated to fill each position.
至少，提名委员会将获得待审查职位的头衔。提名委员会可为被提名填补每一职位的候选人提供一套适当的资格。
Incumbents must notify the nominating committee if they do not wish to be nominated.
任职者如果不希望被提名，必须通知提名委员会。
The nominating committee does not confirm its candidates; it presents its candidates to the appropriate confirming body as indicated below.
提名委员会不确认其候选人；它向适当的确认机构提出其候选人，如下所示。
(2) The annual selection and confirmation process is expected to be completed within 3 months.
(2) 年度选择和确认过程预计将在3个月内完成。
The annual selection and confirmation process is expected to be completed one month prior to the friday of the week before the Spring IETF. It is expected to begin 4 months prior to the friday of the week before the Spring IETF.
年度选择和确认过程预计将在春季IETF前一周的星期五前一个月完成。预计在春季IETF前一周的星期五之前4个月开始。
(3) One-half of each of the then current IESG and IAB positions is selected to be reviewed each year.
(3) 每年对当时的IESG和IAB职位的一半进行审查。
The intent of this rule to ensure the review of approximately one-half of each of the sitting IESG and IAB members each year. It is recognized that circumstances may exist that will require the nominating committee to review more or less than one-half of the current positions, e.g., if the IESG or IAB have re-organized prior to this process and created new positions, or if there are an odd number current positions.
本规则的目的是确保每年对IESG和IAB现任成员中的大约一半进行审查。人们认识到，可能存在需要提名委员会审查超过或少于当前职位一半的情况，例如，如果IESG或IAB在此过程之前重新组织并创建了新职位，或者如果当前职位数量为奇数。
(4) Confirmed candidates are expected to serve at least a 2 year term.
(4) 经确认的候选人预计至少任期2年。
The intent of this rule is to ensure that members of the IESG and IAB serve the number of years that best facilitates the review of one-half of the members each year.
该规则的目的是确保IESG和IAB成员的服务年限最有利于每年对一半成员进行审查。
It is consistent with this rule for the nominating committee to choose one or more of the currently open positions to which it may assign a term greater than 2 years in order to ensure the
提名委员会可以选择一个或多个目前空缺的职位，任期可以超过2年，以确保
ideal application of this rule in the future.
这一规则在未来的理想应用。
It is consistent with this rule for the nominating committee to choose one or more of the currently open positions that share responsibilities with other positions (both those being reviewed and those sitting) to which it may assign a term greater than 2 years to ensure that all such members will not be reviewed at the same time.
提名委员会可选择一个或多个与其他职位（包括被审查职位和在任职位）分担责任的当前空缺职位，其任期可超过2年，以确保所有此类成员不会同时接受审查，这符合本规则。
All member terms begin and end during the Spring IETF meeting corresponding to the end of the term for which they were confirmed. Normally, the confirmed candidate's term begins when the currently sitting member's term ends on the last day of the meeting. A term may begin or end no sooner than the first day of the meeeting as determined by the mutual agreement of the currently sitting member and the confirmed candidate.
所有成员条款在春季IETF会议期间开始和结束，与确认条款的期限结束相对应。通常，经确认的候选人的任期从现任成员任期在会议最后一天结束时开始。任期的开始或结束不得早于会议的第一天，由现任成员和经确认的候选人共同商定。
(5) Mid-term vacancies are filled by the same rules as documented here with four qualifications. First, the most recently constituted nominating committee is reconvened to nominate a candidate to fill the vacancy. Second, the selection and confirmation process is expected to be completed within 1 month, with all other time periods otherwise unspecified prorated accordingly. Third, the confirming body has two weeks from the day it is notified of a candidate to reject the candidate, otherwise the candidate is assumed to have been confirmed. Fourth, the term of the confirmed candidate will be either:
(5) 中期空缺的填补规则与此处所述相同，有四项资格。首先，重新召集最近成立的提名委员会，提名一名候选人填补空缺。第二，甄选和确认过程预计将在1个月内完成，所有其他时间段将按比例分配。第三，确认机构自收到候选人通知之日起有两周的时间拒绝该候选人，否则将假定该候选人已被确认。第四，经确认的候选人的任期为：
a. the remainder of the term of the open position if that remainder is not less than one year.
a. 未平仓头寸的剩余期限，如果剩余期限不少于一年。
b. the remainder of the term of the open position plus the next 2 year term if that remainder is less than one year.
b. 未平仓头寸剩余期限加上下一个2年期限（如果剩余期限少于一年）。
(6) All deliberations and supporting information that relates to specific nominees, candidates, and confirmed candidates are confidential.
(6) 与特定提名人、候选人和确认候选人相关的所有审议和支持信息均为机密信息。
The nominating committee and confirming body members will be exposed to confidential information as a result of their deliberations, their interactions with those they consult, and from those who provide requested supporting information. All members and all other participants are expected to handle this information in a manner consistent with its sensitivity.
提名委员会和确认机构成员将因其审议、与咨询者的互动以及提供所需支持信息的人的互动而接触到机密信息。所有成员和所有其他参与者应以与其敏感性一致的方式处理此信息。
(7) Unless otherwise specified, the advise and consent model is used throughout the process. This model is characterized as follows.

c. 现任IAB成员审查IESG候选人，同意部分、全部或无。
If all of the candidates are confirmed, the job of the nominating committee with respect to reviewing the open IESG positions is considered complete. If some or none of the candidates are confirmed, the nominating committee must reconvene to select alternate candidates for the rejected candidates. Any additional time required by the nominating committee should not exceed its maximum time allotment.
如果所有候选人都得到确认，则提名委员会审查IESG空缺职位的工作视为完成。如果部分候选人或没有候选人获得确认，提名委员会必须重新召开会议，为被拒绝的候选人选出候补候选人。提名委员会所需的任何额外时间不得超过其分配的最长时间。
d. The Internet Society Board of Trustees reviews the IAB candidates, consenting to some, all, or none.
d. 互联网协会董事会审查IAB候选人，同意部分、全部或不同意。
If all of the candidates are confirmed, the job of the nominating committee with respect to reviewing the open IAB positions is considered complete.

e. The confirming bodies decide their consent according to a mechanism of their own choosing, which must ensure that at least one-half of the sitting members agree with the decision.
e. 确认机构根据自己选择的机制决定是否同意，该机制必须确保至少有一半的现任成员同意该决定。
At least one-half of the sitting members of the confirming bodies must agree to either confirm or reject each individual nominee. The agreement must be decided within a reasonable timeframe. The agreement may be decided by conducting a formal vote, by asserting consensus based on informal exchanges (email), or by whatever mechanism is used to conduct the normal business of the confirming body.

(7) 主席从志愿者名单中随机选出10名投票人，其方法可以独立验证为公正和公平。
A method is fair if each eligible volunteer is equally likely to be selected. A method is unbiased if no one can influence its outcome.
如果每个符合条件的志愿者都同样有可能被选中，那么这种方法是公平的。如果没有人能影响一种方法的结果，那么它是无偏的。
The method must include an announcement of an enumerated list of the pool of names together with the specific algorithm for how names will be chosen from the list.

本规则的目的是确保提名委员会与IETF社区的广泛基础进行协商，以便为其审议提供意见。
The consultations are permitted to include a slate of nominees, if all parties to the consultation agree to observe customary and reasonable rules of confidentiality.
如果协商各方同意遵守惯例和合理的保密规则，则允许协商包括提名名单。
A broad base of the community should include the existing members of the IAB and IESG, especially sitting members who share responsibilities with open positions, e.g., co-Area Directors.
社区的广泛基础应包括IAB和IESG的现有成员，特别是与空缺职位分担责任的现任成员，如共同区域总监。
(12) Nominees should be advised that they are being considered and must consent to their nomination prior to being confirmed.

被提名人永远不知道自己是否是候选人，这与这些规则是一致的。
It is consistent with these rules for some nominees to be rejected early in the process and for some nominees to be kept as alternates in case a candidate is rejected by a confirming body. In the matter of whether a confirmed candidate was a first choice or an alternate, that information need not ever be disclosed and, in fact, probably never should be.
一些被提名人在程序的早期被拒绝，以及一些被提名人在候选人被确认机构拒绝的情况下被保留为候补候选人，这与这些规则是一致的。在确认的候选人是第一选择还是候补人选的问题上，这些信息永远不需要披露，事实上，可能永远也不应该披露。
It is consistent with these rules for confirmed candidates to be notified and announced as quickly as possible instead of requiring all confirmed candidates to wait until all open positions have been reviewed.
与这些规则一致的是，应尽快通知和公布已确认的候选人，而不是要求所有已确认的候选人等到所有空缺职位都经过审查后再宣布。
When consulting with individual members of the IETF community, if all parties to the consultation agree to observe customary and reasonable rules of confidentiality the consultations are permitted to include a slate of nominees.
在与IETF社区的个别成员协商时，如果协商各方同意遵守惯例和合理的保密规则，则允许协商包括一份提名名单。
