Summary


Target for Internet Architecture Board (IAB) Stream emails

This email list is used to reach the Internet Architecture Board (IAB) about the IAB document stream in the RFC Series.

The process for publication of IAB-stream RFCs is defined in RFC 4845, "Process for Publication of IAB RFCs":

From time to time, the IAB has cause to publish documents as Requests for Comments (RFCs). These occasions include the following:

o documents that arise from consideration of an issue by the IAB and are authored by the IAB through a nominated editor.

o documents that report on IAB activities, such as workshop reports, and are authored by a nominated editor, generally from among the activity participants.

o documents that are not the outcome of an Internet Engineering Task Force (IETF) Working Group effort but that the IAB has determined would be of benefit to the IETF community to publish. Such documents need not necessarily be authored or revised by the IAB.

The majority of documents published by the IAB will be classified as Informational RFCs (see [RFC2026]). Generally speaking, the IAB does not publish Standards-Track or Experimental RFCs. If the IAB has cause to publish a document as a Best Current Practice (BCP), it would fall under the approval process of the IETF standards stream of RFCs (see [RFC4844]).
