Introduction This memo updates the selection of trustees for the IETF Trust. Previously, Administrative Oversight Committee (IAOC) members also acted as trustees. This memo specifies that the trustees shall be selected separately. This memo updates RFCs 4071 and 4371 with regards to the selection of trustees. All other aspects of the IETF Trust remain as they are today. For a discussion of why this change is needed and a rationale for these specific changes, see [I-D.arkko-iasa2-trust-rationale]. 2. Selection of Trustees This document, if approved, revises the current procedures defined in [RFC4071] and [RFC4371] to eliminate the requirement that trustees be drawn from the members of the IAOC. Trustees shall instead be three members appointed by the IETF Nominations Committee and confirmed by the IESG, one member appointed by the IESG, and one member appointed by the ISOC Board of Trustees. The IETF Trust will provide a list of desired qualifications for the trustee positions. A change to the Trust Agreement is required to effectuate this change, and this document request that the current Trustees make this change at their earliest convenience. The terms of the appointed trustees from Nominations Committee shall be three years. The initial selection shall be one, two, and three year terms. The other appointments by the IESG and the ISOC Board of Arkko & Hardie Expires December 29, 2018 [Page 2] Internet-Draft Trustees for the IETF Trust June 2018 Trustees shall be two year terms, with the initial terms being one and two years, respectively. The normal IETF rules regarding recalls and other Nomcom-related processes continue to apply [RFC7437]. 3.
