The Committee, whose purpose and organization is given in RFC 8711 (BCP 101), oversees the IETF secretariat and rel[1]ated functions. It has a purely administrative role in selection meeting locations, looking after the finances and administrative functions of the IETF. It has no technical role in the setting of Internet standards.
Its members are appointed by the IETF Nominating Committee (NomCom) (of randomly chosen volunteers who participate regularly at meetings is vested with the power to appoint, reappoint, and remove members of the IESG, IAB, IASA, and the IAOC.[1]), the IESG, IAB and ISOC Board of Trustees for 2 years terms. And ex-officio members as the IETF Chair (ex officio), IAB Chair (ex officio) and ISOC President/CEO (ex officio).
Its appointed members are also members of the IETF Trust, which holds the IPR of the IETF.
