The IAB notes with sadness the passing of former IAB member
Sally Floyd. Her work included critical insights into congestion
control and network simulation that have guided both modern
protocol design and common router implementations. She was the
author of key technical work on rate control, selective
acknowledgment, unilateral address fixing, and multicast. As a
member of the IAB, she helped guide transitions in both the IRTF
and IETF with a gentle spirit and an open mind.
Our thoughts are with her family, friends, and the communities
that have lost her light.
