Back in October, Adrian Farrel announced his plans to step down as the Independent Submission Editor (ISE). Over the past four years, Adrian has been a real asset to our community in this role, and the Internet Architecture Board thanks him for his service.

After a public search, the IAB is pleased to announce the appointment of Eliot Lear as Independent Submission Editor (ISE) for a two-year term.

The IAB was fortunate to have a strong pool of candidates to choose from. The IAB would like to thank everyone who put their name forward as a candidate for this position, as well as those who provided feedback during this process.
