PIR, which is behind the .org (dotOrg) registry, has issued a call for statements of interest from people interested in joining their board.
According to the announcement on the ISOC site PIR is looking for two directors for the period covering July 2010 to July 2013.
Full details of what they're looking for and the application process may be found here
While the announcement does go into plenty of detail about what is required, it's a bit lacking in terms of compensation details.
Are PIR board members renumerated?
Presumably the expenses associated with travelling to the various meetings are covered, but again, there are no details.

PIR, the organisation behind .org (dotOrg), has released its first biannual domain report - The Dashboard.
The report, which runs to 10 pages, goes into detail on the type of websites that opt for .org as their domain extension. Not surprisingly a lot of non-profit or non-commercial sites are using .org.
What's also interesting to see, and will come as positive news to industry insiders, is that registrations have continued to grow even while global economies have faltered.
PIR are reporting an 11% growth in registrations, which is very positive news indeed.
Press release and report are available on the PIR site.
