I wouldn't want to exclude the operational and implementer community either. I think the phrase used in draft-iab-rfc-editor is probably the best short form: "the Internet research and engineering community." Note of course that there is no way to list off the names of that community, and any one of them would be a welcome IETF participant.
An important point is that one ought NOT have to be involved with IETF, which does standards, (or, for that matter, with IRTF or even ISOC) in order (A) to be able to use the RFC Editors services or (B) to be included in the community of interest.
