ICANN has issued a call for Trusted Community Representatives (TCRs), who
hold portions of the cryptographic Key Signing Key (KSK) used to maintain
the security of the root zone, or act as back-ups to those who do. The main
active responsibility is to attend KSK Ceremonies and provide the portion
of the KSK as required.

The TCRs are supposed to act as "ambassadors on behalf of the technical
 and operational communities," so it is not clear if IPC members (who were
not also members of the "operational community") would be eligible to
serve.  But if anyone's interested, they can ask, or I'd be happy to ask as
a general matter.
