The nominee does not need to be a member of ISOC. Nominate using the form at https://www.isoc.org/awards/postel/application.php and include the following details:

• Name and contact details for nominee
• CV or biography of nominee
• Statement of recommendation
• List of corroborating references, including names, email addresses, and telephone numbers.

The statement should include specific acts, works, contributions, and other criteria that would show the nominee fits the standards set by Jon Postel. It should be clear from your statement that your nominee has performed in this manner over a long period of time, not simply that the nominee has done several significant things in the area of data communications and the Internet.
