I think public nominations might be more nerve-wracking for good candidates than inspiring.
My sense is that we would benefit from more pro-active identification of people who 'do things the right way', and reach out to them directly. Often, good people don't think of themselves as leaders, they just like to do things the right way because that's how they are. Identifying them and helping them see that they can have a positive impact through the DMB, together with offering to mentor them if difficult issues come up, may give them the confidence to step forward. We might also want to look at the way we structure the work. If it's always an hour at the same time, it means that only certain time zones will be well represented. Maybe we need to find a way to cover more timezones carefully, without pushing anybody into very difficult times.
