NANOG Program Committee

The Program Committee is a group of eighteen individuals from the NANOG community who together are responsible for the solicitation and selection of material for NANOG meeting programs. The Board of Directors will select new Program Committee members after NANOG 69 in February 2017. Eleven (11) positions are to be filled.

Per the NANOG bylaws, eligible candidates each will serve a two-year term. No Program Committee member will serve more than two consecutive full terms, although additional terms may be served after a one-year interval. To be eligible to be appointed as a member of the Program Committee, an individual must have attended one NANOG conference within the prior calendar year (12 months) and be a NANOG member in good standing.

One member of the Board of Directors will serve ex officio (without a vote) on the Program Committee, in order to facilitate communication between the two groups. Broad technical knowledge of Internet operations and familiarity with NANOG meetings are useful attributes. Having constructive opinions and ideas about how NANOG meetings might be improved is of high value. A willingness to recruit presentations for each meeting is required.

All candidates will be notified of their nomination and will be asked to accept or decline the nomination. If accepted, they will be asked to complete an online questionnaire and their Declaration of Candidacy. The 2016 Board will appoint Program Committee Members the afternoon of Wednesday, February 8, 2017.  All nominations and candidate questions must be submitted by 9:00PM Eastern on February 7, 2017 in order to be considered for appointment to the committee by the Board of Directors.
