My bad, and apologies for the confusion. The good news is that the website is properly up to date.
There is only one new committee: Venue Review Committee.

Leslie, I'm confused and I assume others will be when they read
the announcement below as well.
Are there to be separate Venue Review and Venue Selection
committees? Your first paragraph and the charter appear to
refer to the former, but your second paragraph indicates that a
Venue Selection committee is being (or has been) created. If
there are actually two committees, I suggest that the charter
for the Review committee is incomplete without some discussion
about how they are expected to interact, whether membership with
overlap, etc.
thanks,

In reviewing its requirements and operations, especially in
the light of the imminent conclusion of the MTGVENUE work, the
IAOC has decided to create a new subcommittee, the Venue
Review committee (charter copied below), effective as of IETF
101. Its composition is as noted below, plus IAOC members that
the new IAOC will select in London, and any community
volunteers that the new IAOC chooses to appoint. (A call for
community volunteers for all IAOC committees went out earlier
today -- see
https://mailarchive.ietf.org/arch/msg/ietf-announce/kQy7Ob-GeQ
-w0uB_WTO1PXfkpyc ).
With the creation of the Venue Selection committee, the IAOC
has also chosen to conclude the work of the Meetings
Committee, effective March 23, 2018 (i.e., Friday of the IETF
101 meeting).
I'll take this opportunity to thank Ole Jacobsen for his
many years of service in chairing the Meetings Committee, as
well as all the Meetings Committee members for their hard work
over the years, helping the IETF broaden its scope of meeting
locations and getting us well set up for the future.
Information about all current IAOC committees is available
here: https://iaoc.ietf.org/committees.html .

IAOC Chair.
Venue Review Committee
Approved 22 February 2018 to be effective as of IETF 101
Background
The Venue Review Committee provides support to the
professional meeting staff to ensure that venues selected for
IETF meetings are tuned to IETF community requirements. This
includes:
reviewing and providing input to the IETF meeting calendar
(based on the planned IETF meeting schedule and general
geography)
ensuring there is an up to date public resource with
structured information about potential cities and venues
(e.g., which cities have been reviewed and seem reasonable,
which are off the table because of lack of appropriate meeting
venue, etc) and accepting community input in maintaining the
information
reviewing possible meeting cities and venues with the
Secretariat staff and NOC lead; providing the IAOC with any
appropriate feedback where its attention may be needed as
regards the meeting requirements laid out in
draft-ietf-mtgvenue-iaoc-venue-selection-process-12.
reviewing community feedback on proposed venues and
contributing to the meeting proposal package that is prepared
for approval.
The number and general geographic layout of IETF meetings is
decided elsewhere. The overall meeting requirements are laid
out in draft-ietf-mtgvenue-iaoc-venue-selection-process-12.
The Venue Review Committee shall report to the IAOC monthly
unless circumstances dictate that the IAOC be informed sooner.
