IETF Administrative Support Activity 2.0: Consolidated Updates to IETF Administrative Terminology
RFC 8717, “IETF Administrative Support Activity 2.0: Consolidated Updates to IETF Administrative Terminology”, is a Best Current Practice document published in February 2020 by J. Klensin. It updates RFC 2028, RFC 2418, RFC 3005, RFC 3710, RFC 3929, RFC 4633, RFC 6702. The canonical text is published by the RFC Editor.
Abstract
In 2018, the IETF began the transition to a new administrative structure and updated its IETF Administrative Support Activity (IASA) to a new "IASA 2.0" structure. In addition to more substantive changes that are described in other documents, the transition to the 2018 IETF Administrative Support structure changes several position titles and organizational relationships that are referenced elsewhere. Rather than reissue those referencing documents individually, this specification provides updates to them and deprecates some now-obsolete documents to ensure that there is no confusion due to these changes.
What “Best Current Practice” means
Documents the IETF community's recommended operational or procedural practice rather than a protocol specification.
