On the IAB: I do not agree that the focus needs to be on the "A" of architecture. There is not a lot that the IAB does that is not in its charter. I believe that the focus needs to be on the "B" of board. In other words, just as in the IAOC more oversight. During my tenure we took a number of steps to move the handy work into programs and initiatives in which the execution of projects could take place so that the IAB members themselves could oversee but that journey was far from complete. For the IAOC and IAB these will be difficult challenges that cannot be enforced externally but also need an evolutionary culture change . Not only in the I* bodies themselves but also how the NOMCOM. --Olaf ________________________________________________________ Olaf M. Kolkman NLnet Labs http://www.nlnetlabs.nl/
