1. Introduction
In the RFC Editor model defined by [I-D.iab-rfcefdp-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 function is defined under the authority of the IAB by
[I-D.iab-rfcefdp-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.
