Table of Contents

1. Introduction

In the RFC Editor model defined by [I-D.saintandre-rfced-model], the RFC Series is now governed by its own mechanisms. This requires a modification to the Internet Architecture Board charter [RFC2850].

Note that RFC 2850 states that the RFC Editor appoints a liaison member to the IAB. This does not change.

2. Changed Text

In Section 2 of RFC 2850, entitled "The Role of the IAB", under the sub-heading "(b) RFC Series and IANA", the following sentence:

The IAB must approve the appointment of an organization to act as RFC Editor and the general policy followed by the RFC Editor.

is replaced by:

The RFC Editor model is defined by [I-D.saintandre-rfced-model].

3. IANA Considerations

This document makes no request of IANA.

4. Security Considerations

This document should not affect the security of the Internet.

5. Acknowledgements

Useful comments were received from [TBD] ...
