Good morning,

The lotteries have produced randomness and I have run the RFC3797 algorithm. Thus the following 10 volunteers are selected to serve as voting members of the NomCom. They will choose the next RIPE chair and vice chair.

Selection # ID Name Affiliation
01 19 Dmitry Burkov RU-CENTER
02 15 Joe Abley Public Interest Registry
03 25 Dmitry Kohmanyuk Hostmaster.UA
04 08 Gert Döring SpaceNet AG
05 11 Ondřej Caletka CESNET
06 30 Tina Morris Amazon
07 02 Sander Steffann Global NOG Alliance
08 21 Benno Overeinder NLnet Labs
09 03 Robert Evans Jisc
10 10 Arnold Nipper DE-CIX Management GmbH

This is a fine selection of very capable people who are well rooted in our community. It is about as good as I personally hoped for. Of course it could have been more diverse if more people had offered to serve…

The following 6 volunteers are the ‘reserve’ and will be called upon in this order if necessary:

Selection # ID Name Affiliation
11 05 Stefan Wahl Megaport / ECIX
12 16 Marcus Stoegbauer Megaport / ECIX
13 17 Mircea Ulinic DigitalOcean
14 36 João luis silva damas APNIC
15 32 Nathalie Trenaman RIPE NCC
16 09 Hervé Clément Orange SA

All 16 volunteers meet the selection criteria; thanks to Alexandra Vos of the meeting secretariat for double checking this. Also no more than two of these people have the same affiliation. Thus all 16 meet the criteria for serving on the NomCom. According to ripe-728 there is a 7 day challenge period starting now. After this period the selections become definite.

In the name of the community I thank all 36 volunteers for offering to serve. The NomCom will have its first meeting in the second half of January. As a chair I plan to conduct this process as openly as possible and to proactively inform the community about what is going on. This may cause a little traffic on this list ;-). Let us support the NomCom during this process by providing as much well considered input as we can.

We have received a total of 1 (one) nominations so far. Apparently the call for nominations came too soon after the call for NomCom volunteers and went unnoticed by many. Thus I intend to extend the deadline for this well into next year. Stay tuned for that announcement.

Daniel Karrenberg
Chair of the RIPE Nominations Committee
