| <t>The IETF Administrative Support Activity (IASA) was originally | ||||
| established in 2005. In the years since then, the needs of the IETF evolved in w | ||||
| ays that required changes to its administrative structure. The purpose of this R | ||||
| FC is to document and describe the IETF Administrative Support Activity, version | ||||
| 2.0 (IASA 2.0). It defines the roles and responsibilities of the IETF Administr | ||||
| ation LLC Board (IETF LLC Board), the IETF Executive Director, and the Internet | ||||
| Society in the fiscal and administrative support of the IETF standards process. | ||||
| It also defines the membership and selection rules for the IETF LLC Board.</t> | ||||
| <t>This document obsoletes RFC 4071, RFC 4333, and RFC 7691.</t> | ||||
