The excom approved the draft minutes as amended.

III. Review September 19th ISOC Board of Trustees Meeting Agenda
The excom reviewed the proposed agenda for the upcoming Board call that was distributed on the excom list. The excom discussed possible future board topics and when they should be discussed throughout the year.

The excom also discussed the proposed agenda for the 19 September Board call and made some suggestions.

IV. Review Call for Candidates for 2012 PIR Board of Directors
Lynn noted that in the past the excom has acted as a nominations committee for positions on the PIR board and prepares a slate for approval by the full board.  She said that the call for nominations was prepared by ISOC staff for review by the excom and the PIR board. She then reviewed the terms of the current PIR board members.

The excom did not have any comments on the draft call for nominees.  Lynn said she would forward the call to the PIR board for their review.

The excom agreed that the excom should again act as the nominations committee for the PIR board selections.
