Introduction In version 3 of the RFC Editor model defined by [I-D.iab-rfcefdp-rfced-model], the RFC Series is 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, but refers to the RFC Editor function as described in [I-D.iab-rfcefdp-rfced-model]. 2. Changed Text In Section 2 of RFC 2850, entitled "The Role of the IAB", under the sub-heading "(d) 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. Approval This document is published as an IETF Best Current Practice and has also been approved by the IAB.
