Dear Colleagues, Hereby some information about appointments that the IAB recently made in the context of the RFC Editor model and its related selection process. === RFC Series Advisory Group The RFC Editor model (http://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-iab-rfc-editor-model) calls for an RFC Series Advisory Group (RSAG). As described in the model document the IAB has approached the members of the RFC Editorial Board whether they are willing to serve on an (interim) RSAG. During its June 25th 2009 meeting, the IAB appointed the following persons as members of an interim RSAG: - Joel Halpern - Bruce Davie - Scott Bradner - John Klensin - Craig Partridge - Bob Hinden - Glen Zorn - Brian Carpenter - Bob Braden - Jim Schaad - Aaron Falk It is expected that this interim RSAG and RSE will formulate recommendations to the IAB about this model, in particular the regular composition, size, and selection process for the permanent RSAG. The contact e-mail address for this lists will be announced later. == Ad-hoc Committee for Selection of Editorial Function In appendix 2.2 of the RFC Editor model it is mentioned that for the appointment of the RFC Series Editor and the Independent Submission Editor the IAB is assisted by an Ad-hoc Committee for Selection of Editorial Function (ACEF). The IAB appointed the following members to the ACEF: - Joel Halpern - Bruce Davie - Scott Bradner - Craig Partridge - Bob Hinden - Glen Zorn - Jim Schaad - Aaron Falk IAB members Russ Housley, John Klensin, and Olaf Kolkman will be joining the committee in order to keep the communication lines between the IAB and the committee short. The IAD (Ray Pelletier), who will be negotiation a contract with the RFC Series Editor after the IAB made an appointment, will be joining as an observer. The e-mail address for this committee is: acef@iab.org Finally, I would like to remind the community that the call for an Independent Submission Editor and the RFC Series Editor is still open see: http://www.rfc-editor.org/pipermail/rfc-interest/2009-June/001371.html http://www.rfc-editor.org/pipermail/rfc-interest/2009-June/001372.html For the IAB, --Olaf Kolkman _______________________________________________ IETF-Announce@ietf.org https://www.ietf.org/mailman/listinfo/ietf-announce
