<BR></DIV></BLOCKQUOTE>
<DIV><BR></DIV>The process document reflects the state of the DT's
discussion as of last Wednesday, at which point we'd sort of said ok we
(DT/Council/ET) will figure out next how exactly the allocation of
applications to slots will be done, and we're debating that in the DT now.
But here I'm trying to look at it from an applicant's point of view,
and in that context I'm wondering if they wouldn't want more of a sense of
what happens after they hit send. I know I've had communication with someone
who's considering applying but would like more clarity. Presumably we
don't want to deter applications by fostering uncertainty, unless it's
unavoidable.<BR>

<BLOCKQUOTE type="cite">CORE person and an IPR lawyer so maybe it's
straightforward, <BR></BLOCKQUOTE>
<BLOCKQUOTE type="cite">but maybe not...<BR></BLOCKQUOTE><BR>Chuck: I have
several concerns about asking applicants to specify which slot they want:
1) It would require us to more carefully define the slots to applicants so
they could make an informed decision and I don't think there is enough
time for to do that or to answer questions that would arrise; 2) some
applicants will likely choose a slot or slots for which we don't think
they fit; 3) if we did ask applicants to choose a slot or slots, I think
SGs and the Council for the two open slots should still have the option to
endorse a candidate for a slot they didn't choose, so what would the
advantage be of asking candidates to choose? 4) in general, I think asking
candidates to choose slots adds complexity that we do not have time for
without commensorate value.<BR></DIV></BLOCKQUOTE>
<DIV><BR></DIV>Asking them to indicate if they see themselves as and wish to
be endorsed by any particular SG would make their desires clearer and help
us avoid doing something they object to, unless it can't be helped.
Let's say someone works for an entity that's nominally in SG x but is
really into the issues and orientation of SG y, with which
s/he collaborates closely and might expect stronger support than from
SG x. Simply asking which if any SG are you seeking the endorsement of
would provide a clarifying default. But of course, if ET and/or
Council decides the candidate really does fit SG y rather than x, or
should/not be treated as an unaffiliated person, ok, we need not be
bound by his/her indication.</DIV>
<DIV><BR></DIV>
<DIV>I'm not going to hari kari if Council prefers to do it another way, but
have come to think that it'd be nicer to candidates if we simply ask them if
they have a preference, and that it might be useful in assessing applicants
from folks with complex profiles.</DIV>
