The IAB has just notified the ITU-T that Deborah Brungard will be the new IETF Liaison Manager to the ITU-T for MPLS. Deborah was appointed following an open call for volunteers (see email from Scott Mansfield to the IETF list on Fri 3/29/2013 4:32 PM EDT). Please congratulate Deborah when you see her.
Please thank Scott Mansfield for his past service in this role. Scott is now the overall liaison manager to ITU-T, and as such I am confident that he will provide valuable support for Deborah.
