<p style="margin: 0px 0px 1em; padding: 0px;">In October 2011 ARIN
will hold elections for open seats on the ARIN Board of Trustees
and ARIN Advisory Council. This year the Board will appoint a
representative to the NRO NC from nominations received by the
community. To prepare, we are opening the floor for Community
"Ask the Nominee" questions!</p>
<p style="margin: 0px 0px 1em; padding: 0px;">If you have
questions on relevant policy issues and challenges facing ARIN
that you'd like candidates to answer, send them to <a
moz-do-not-send="true" class="moz-txt-link-abbreviated"
href="mailto:info@arin.net">info@arin.net</a> no<span
class="Apple-converted-space"> </span><br>
later than 30 June 2011.</p>
<p style="margin: 0px 0px 1em; padding: 0px;">Please indicate if
your question is directed to candidates for the Board, Advisory
Council, NRO Number Council or any combination of the three.</p>
<p style="margin: 0px 0px 1em; padding: 0px;">The Nomination
Committee (NomCom) will determine the final list and phrasing of
all questions. The NomCom may solicit additional input from<span
class="Apple-converted-space"> </span><br>
eligible voters on the final set of questions for Board,
Advisory Council, and NRO Number Council nominees.</p>
<p style="margin: 0px 0px 1em; padding: 0px;">ARIN will publish
candidate bios and their questionnaire responses when the slate
of candidates is announced. Last year's questionnaires may be
viewed at:</p>
