The IAB is ready to ask the RFC-Editor to publish

   IAB Thoughts on the Role of the Internet Research Task Force
                                 (IRTF)
                          draft-iab-irtf-01.txt

as an Informational RFC.  The chief purpose of this document
was to collect and record a set of considerations the IAB
discussed in the process of reviewing the IRTF Chair position
last year.  As such, it is not suggesting process or structure
changes at this time, and is primarily intended to capture IAB
state.  Comments are therefore most likely to be of the form
of suggestions for improving clarity.

The IAB solicits comments by December 14, 2005. Please send
comments to the IAB ([email-masked]), or to [email-masked].

The document can be found at

>From the Abstract:

    This document is an IAB (Internet Architecture Board) report on the
    role of the IRTF (Internet Research Task Force), both on its own and
    in relationsip to the IETF.  This document evolved from a discussion
    within the IAB as part of a process of appointing a new chair of the
    IRTF.

Leslie Daigle,
      For the IAB.
