It's good question.  The following are the names of the ASO Council.  I would 
think a few selected from this group and the PSO Council, geographically 
diverse, might serve well for this election:

Takashi Arano 3 APNIC region 
Jianping Wu 2 APNIC region 
Hyun Je Park 1 APNIC region 
Cathy Wittbrodt 3 ARIN region 
Dave Meyer 2 ARIN region 
Raimundo Beca 1 ARIN region 
Wilfried Woeber 3 RIPE NCC region 
Hans Petter Holen 2 RIPE NCC region 
Sabine Jaume
