Hi, Dear Patrick, Dear All NANOG's members, I'm glad to be member of this beautiful community, it's a place where i'm taking my inspiration to strengthen the building of the Cameroonian Network Operators Group. Working in a NANOG commitee would be a great experience, for me and a wonderful gain to the cmNOG. So i want to stand for a position in one commitee. Maybe i can bring something constructive just due to my difference ( I'm an African :-) ), my profond interest to Networks infrastructures and Technologies and my commitment with non profit organizations and Communities such as the NANOG, ISOC, ICANN, AfriNIC... With Best Regards, --sb. ________________________________ On Sunday, 21 October 2012, at 1:00 PM,Patrick W.

Seeking NANOG Communications Committee candidates for upcoming elections and my farewell
by Randy Epstein 11 Oct '12

11 Oct '12

Greetings NANOG friends and colleagues! This month, elections will take place at NANOG 56 in Dallas, TX. There are currently two open positions available on the NANOG Communications Committee for the upcoming term. Some brief information about the Committee and what we are seeking: The Communications Committee will consist of at least three members selected by the Board of Directors. Members of the Communications Committee may not serve concurrently on the Board of Directors. The chairperson of the Communications Committee will serve ex officio in a non-voting role on the Board of Directors, in order to facilitate communication between the two groups. One of the primary functions of Communications Committee is the maintenance of a community mailing list (the NANOG operators list). The Communications Committee will be responsible for the administration and minimal moderation of the list. The Board of Directors will select the new Communications Committee members after the election in October. Two positions are to be filled. The main NANOG mailing list serves an important role in the community by providing a day-to-day forum for network operators. Participating as a member of the Communications Committee gives you the opportunity to make a noticeable contribution. All candidates will be asked to complete a questionnaire about their qualifications, and to submit a Declaration of Candidacy (DoC), which is available at https://www.nanog.org/governance/elections/2012elections/2012_Declaration_of _Candidacy.docx. Communications Committee Member Responsibilities may be viewed at http://www.nanog.org/governance/CC_Member.pdf. If you have any further questions, please feel free to reach out to me directly as well. Personally, I will not be able to run again as I have now served two terms (four years) on the Committee and will be termed out. It has been a pleasure serving the members of NANOG and the Board of Directors during these last four years, from when I first started on the Mailing List Committee and watched over the transformation into what is now the Communications Committee. I'd like to thank the NANOG community for giving me this opportunity as it has certainly been an enjoyable experience. I hope to serve the community again in the future. Regards, Randy Epstein Chair, NANOG Communications Committee
