[arin-announce] ARIN Seeks Community Input for 2017 Nominee Questionnaires

[ARIN]

In preparation for ARIN’s call for nominations on Monday, 17 July 2017, 
ARIN needs your input regarding this year’s nominee questionnaires.

Each October, ARIN’s Membership elect individuals to the ARIN Board of 
Trustees and Advisory Council (AC), and two out of three years one ARIN 
representative to the Number Resource Organization Number Council (NRO 
NC). This year the NRO NC representative will be appointed by the Board 
of Trustees. To run, a nominee must submit an online questionnaire to 
provide detailed information about their relevant experience and 
positions on key community issues.

Candidate responses to this questionnaire will be published online along 
with their bio when the slate of candidates is announced on 30 August, 
and they will also be included in the 2017 Voter Guide that is mailed to 
all eligible voters.

If you have questions that are relevant to policy issues or challenges 
facing ARIN that you’d like candidates to answer, please send your 
questions to members at arin.net for the Nomination Committee’s (NomCom) 
consideration no later than 31 May 2017. Please be sure to mark whether 
your question is directed to candidates for the Board of Trustees, AC, 
or NRO NC, or any combination of the three. The NomCom will review all 
submissions and then determine a final list and phrasing of all 
candidate questions.
