[council] FW: NomCom appointee skill sets

Fri Oct 31 09:09:36 UTC 2014

I would have thought this was an odd request for the IPC to make, as it implies the two intellectual property lawyers that IPC already generally provides to council are somehow inadequate. 
Or perhaps you are suggesting that council needs more people who are able to provide an expert intellectual property law perspective from outside the IPC, in which case I agree :-)

But if you'll pardon my teasing above - more seriously, while I absolutely agree that intellectual property law expertise is valuable to council, I would have thought intellectual property law is also one area of expertise that council is pretty much guaranteed to possess, and the NomCom appointees are designed more to fill gaps, rather than bolster areas of relative strength?
