Very well done in my opinion Avri.
thanks
Regarding "Criteria that are especially important for 2008 ", we might want to reword this something like this: "Criteria that are especially important for the 2008 selection"; this change may be more for our benefit than for the NomCom, but I think it is important for us to realize the period when the nominee will begin service. For example, as I can tell you noted, Jon Bing's term will end next year and he has been a very valuable contributer regarding 'knowledge of international law' and 'intergovernmental expertise'; therefore, if Jon is not reselected, we could have a gap in those areas.

Another possible area where we could have a gap is IDN technical expertise. We have primarily relied on Cary in this regard and he is no longer on the Council. Edmon also has good expertise in this area and there may be others who can fill the gap here, but in the next few years IDNs are going to be a very important topic. So I would suggest that we mark 'IDN expertise'.

One area that we seem to have missed is 'DNS Security'. That is always a need and with the incresing emphasis on DNSSEC, it might be useful to not only add it to the list but to mark it.
done thanks a.
