I'll be forthright and honest though:
- there must be collaboration, willingness, partnership and agreement
to move things forward
- we must also have folks that are willing to listen to all sides
- we must have folks that are willing to help
- they must also know about nonprofits in addition to networks and
other technical matters
- we need someone that's versed in ARIN policy (and perhaps the
workings of the ISOC) as well.
Oooo. I have all those qualifications. Also I'm quite interested in
participating in the governance of a network. I would be open to a board
position if folks had interest.
On those first three points, I will not argue; and honestly (and
probably shockingly), I do think Bart would make
a good Executive
Director; but I do not think that he would make a good Board member.
Yes. I agree with this.
Having been on the board of a non profit, the an
executive director of another non-profit, a CIO
in government,
CTO/board memebr in private industry and also as the current
administrator of a governmental network that encompasses hundreds of
miles of fiber, has over 300 points of presence and maintains nearly
/18 worth of public and private address space, plus their services in
the largest county in the state of Maryland, I'm worried on many
fronts (and yes, throwing in my qualifications - more so to show I'm
qualified to show genuine worry).
Very impressive sir. :)
Someone coming on board would also have to draft
a plan to fill in
financial gaps we're expriecing (please donate to ARDC); we don't need
a leader, as we have one in Brain, we need someone that will help him;
and frankly, that's his decision to make. Regarding how to do so, as I
understand it, Brian is the only Director, he would call the annual
meeting and vote as he is the only voting member. I'd just personally
ask that we have some geographic diversity in case the West Coast
floats off into the Pacific with the "proverbial bus."
I'm in Austin TX. Also for technical diversity, I have a pretty awesome
NOC in Kansas City MO. So if you need alternate announce points for the
space, let me know.
And I would ask those voting, that if one will not take the time to
work on a implementation and testing of one
simple script, will he
magically have time to direct a world-wide amateur radio network?
Well put.
