The RZERC reviews proposed architectural changes to the content of the DNS root zone, the systems including both hardware and software components used in executing changes to the DNS root zone, and the mechanisms used for distribution of the DNS root zone. The RZERC was formed as a result of the IANA Stewardship Transition.

The process for appointing this representative is outlined in RFC 8128.

The current IETF-selected member of the RZERC is Willem Toorop, who has indicated that he is willing to continue in this role for the 2025-2026 term. The IAB is now soliciting input from the community on this incumbent.
