Trustees and five seats on the Advisory Council, and one seat on the

To submit a nomination for the ARIN Board of Trustees and/or Advisory 
Council, a nominator must be an ARIN Trustee or from an organization 
that is a General Member in Good Standing. Eligible nominators may make 
up to three nominations for each open seat. Any person may be nominated
