[arin-announce] ARIN Seeks Community Input for 2019 Candidate Nominee Questionnaires

[ARIN]

In preparation for ARIN’s Board of Trustees, Advisory Council (AC), and 
Number Resource Organization (NRO) Number Council Call for Nominations 
on Monday, 15 July, ARIN seeks community input regarding this year’s 
nominee questionnaires.

In Q4 of each year, ARIN’s Membership elects individuals to the ARIN 
Board of Trustees and AC, and two out of three years, one ARIN 
representative to the NRO Number Council. To be considered for a seat on 
one of these bodies, a nominee must submit an online questionnaire to 
provide detailed information about their relevant experience and 
positions on key community issues.

Candidate questionnaire responses will be published online along with 
their bio via an electronic ARIN 2019 Voter Guide when the Initial Slate 
of Candidates is announced on Monday, 16 September.

If you have questions that are relevant to policy issues or challenges 
facing ARIN that you’d like candidates to answer, please send your 
suggestions to members at arin.net for the 2019 Nomination Committee’s 
(NomCom) consideration no later than Friday, 21 June 2019. Please be 
sure to mark whether your question is directed to candidates for the 
ARIN Board of Trustees, AC, or the NRO Number Council, or any 
combination of the three.

The 2019 NomCom will review all submissions for the Board and ARIN AC 
questionnaires, and ARIN’s Executive team will review all submissions 
for the NRO Number Council questionnaire to determine a final list and 
phrasing of all candidate questions. (Per the Board-approved ARIN 
Election Processes, Section III, Nominee Qualification Questionnaires, 
the ARIN Board of Trustees has already approved a base set of questions 
to be completed by Trustee nominees, and the NomCom may propose 
additional questions to be added to the questionnaire.)
