Update to RFC 3777 to Clarify Nominating Committee Eligibility of IETF Leadership

更新RFC 3777,以澄清IETF领导层提名委员会资格

Abstract

摘要

RFC 3777 specifies that "sitting members" of the IAB and IESG "may not volunteer to serve on the nominating committee". Since the time that document was written, the IETF Administrative Oversight Committee (IAOC) was formed; that body is not covered by RFC 3777. There is also ambiguity in RFC 3777 about whether ex officio members and liaisons are included as "sitting members". This document updates RFC 3777 to clarify the rules as they apply to members of the IAB, the IESG, and the IAOC.

RFC 3777规定IAB和IESG的“现任成员”不得自愿加入提名委员会。自该文件编写以来,成立了IETF行政监督委员会(IAOC);RFC 3777未涵盖该机构。关于当然成员和联络人是否被列为“现任成员”,RFC 3777中也存在歧义。本文件更新了RFC 3777,以澄清适用于IAB、IESG和IAOC成员的规则。

1. Introduction
1. 介绍

The "IAB and IESG Selection, Confirmation, and Recall Process: Operation of the Nominating and Recall Committees" document [RFC3777] defines the nominating committee process. On the nominating committee, it is important to include people who have the experience necessary to understand the IETF process: those individuals can bring a broader perspective to the nominating committee and will help ensure that the people it selects are better prepared to fulfill the roles. That said, one of the key points in the process and in the selection of the nominating committee is that the IETF wants to avoid having the IAB and the IESG be self-selecting. The selection of the nominating committee, therefore, excludes individuals who currently serve on the bodies to which the nominating committee selects seats.

“IAB和IESG选择、确认和召回流程:提名和召回委员会的运作”文件[RFC3777]定义了提名委员会流程。在提名委员会中,重要的是要包括具有理解IETF流程所需经验的人员:这些人员可以为提名委员会带来更广阔的视角,并将有助于确保其选择的人员更好地做好履行职责的准备。这就是说,提名委员会选择过程中的一个关键点是IETF希望避免IAB和IESG自选。因此,提名委员会的甄选不包括目前在提名委员会选出席位的机构任职的个人。

RFC 3777 specifies that "sitting members" of the IAB and IESG "may not volunteer to serve on the nominating committee". Since the time that document was written, the IETF Administrative Oversight Committee (IAOC) was formed. Some IAOC members are selected by the nominating committee (see [RFC4071], Section 4), and that body is not covered by RFC 3777. There is also ambiguity in RFC 3777 about whether ex officio members, liaisons, and such are included as "sitting members". This document updates RFC 3777 to clarify the rules as they apply to members of the IAB, the IESG, and the IAOC, with the understanding of the intent of RFC 3777 as outlined above.

RFC 3777规定IAB和IESG的“现任成员”不得自愿加入提名委员会。自该文件编写以来,成立了IETF行政监督委员会(IAOC)。一些IAOC成员由提名委员会选出(见[RFC4071],第4节),该机构不在RFC 3777的范围内。RFC 3777中也有关于当然成员、联络人等是否包括为“现任成员”的模糊规定。本文件更新了RFC 3777,以澄清适用于IAB、IESG和IAOC成员的规则,并理解RFC 3777的意图,如上所述。

RFC 3777 does not exclude participation by working group chairs, IRTF research group chairs, members of directorates and special review teams, or members of other advisory bodies. This document makes no changes in that regard.

RFC 3777不排除工作组主席、IRTF研究组主席、董事会和特别审查小组成员或其他咨询机构成员的参与。本文件在这方面未作任何修改。

2. Replacement of RFC 3777, Section 4, Rule 15
2. 替换RFC 3777第4节第15条

The following paragraph replaces RFC 3777, Section 4, rule 15 in its entirety.

以下段落全部替换RFC 3777第4节第15条。

15. Any person who serves on any of the Internet Society Board of Trustees, the IAB, the IESG, or the IAOC, including those who serve on these bodies in ex officio positions, may not volunteer to serve as voting members of the nominating committee. Liaisons to these bodies from other bodies or organizations are not excluded by this rule.

15. 任何在互联网协会董事会、IAB、IESG或IAOC任职的人员,包括在这些机构担任当然职务的人员,不得自愿担任提名委员会的投票成员。本规则不排除其他机构或组织与这些机构的联络。

3. Security Considerations
