Name: Suzanne Woolf
Motivation: I have worked for 15+ years on various topics related to the security and stability of Internet infrastructure, particularly policy, protocol, and operations around DNS names and IP addresses. I am interested in supporting and extending resiliency, scalability, and transparency in the operations of those systems. RSSAC is in a unique position to promote collaboration between root server operators and others interested in those attributes of the internet infrastructure, with the caucus as the primary mechanism for open, technically informed, effective discussions and recommendations.
Indication of availability, not a formal commitment: currently 7-10 hours per week total for RSSAC business, up to 20 including my current role as RSSAC liaison to the ICANN Board of Directors.
