Root Server System Advisory Committee (RSSAC)
RSSAC Members
The RSSAC consists of representatives from the organizations responsible for the management of the root zone and other partners in the Internet community. The committee also appoints liaisons to other groups to report on matters that need to be coordinated or communicated between them per the RSSAC Operational Procedures. Upon request, the RSSAC also appoints representatives to specific review teams and other ICANN community groups or efforts.
On 18 July 2013, the ICANN Board approved the initial membership and leadership of the RSSAC, with new representatives also appointed on 26 June 2014. A list of past leaders can be viewed here.
