The IETF has a limited number of liaison relationships with other organizations. Liaisons are appointed by the IAB when the IAB feels that conditions warrent appointing a specific person to such a task. Note that such liaison appointments are rare, as the best way for organizations to work with the IETF is to do so within the working groups. The primary contact on liaison negotiation is the IAB.
The IETF web site lists the current liaison relationships.
IAB's Liaison Correspondence is held in the IAB's Liaison Statement repository.
All IETF Liaison Statements are recorded at the IETF's Liaisons Statements Page. Liaison Statements directed to the IETF should be submitted by an authorized liaison manager using the IETF's Liaison Statement Management Tool.
Some liaison managers occasionally send reports to the IAB, which are recorded in IAB meeting minutes and collected below.
