The IETF-ISOC Relationship
draft-ietf-iasa2-rfc2031bis-08
Abstract
This document summarises the Internet Engineering Task Force (IETF) -
Internet Society (ISOC) relationship, following a major revision to
the structure of the IETF Administrative Support Activity (IASA) in
2018. The IASA was revised under a new "IASA 2.0" structure by the
IASA2 Working Group, which changed the IETF's administrative, legal,
and financial structure. As a result, it also changed the
relationship between the IETF and ISOC, which made it necessary to
revise RFC 2031.

1. Introduction and History
The Internet Society provides a corporate home for the administrative
entity that supports the Internet Engineering Task Force (IETF), the
Internet Architecture Board (IAB), and the Internet Research Task
Force (IRTF), and supports the work of these groups through a variety
of programs.
The Internet Engineering Task Force (IETF) is the body that is
responsible for the development and maintenance of the Internet
Standards. The IETF is primarily a volunteer organization. Its
driving force is a group of dedicated high-quality engineers from all
over the world. In a structure of working groups, these engineers
exchange ideas and experience, and through discussion and
collaboration (both electronically and face-to-face) they strive to
achieve rough consensus and implement the standards through running
code.
The growth of the Internet over several decades also led to the
growth of the IETF. More and more people, organizations, and
companies rely on Internet Standards. Non-technical issues, such as
legal, administrative, and financial issues had long been an
undesirable but unavoidable part of the IETF. To address these
issues in 1995 the IETF established the Poised95 Working Group. Its
