We are pleased to announce that the IASA transition team has been formed and work is underway. Final selections by the IAB and IESG were: Lucy Lynch (selected by the IESG) Kurtis Lindqvist (selected by the IAB) The IESG and IAB found themselves in the privileged position of being able to consider many individuals would collectively bring a considerable range of talents and capabilities to this activity. We are very grateful to all those who were in a position to offer their time energy for the transition team. Kurtis and Lucy join Steve Crocker (selected by ISOC BoT) Lynn St.Amour (ISOC President/CEO) Leslie Daigle (IAB Chair) Harald Alvestrand (IETF Chair) to form the IASA transition team. Leslie.
