The RFC became the official document of the Network Working Group.Jon Postel, Director of the Computer Networks Divison became the first editor of RFC Series. He was the RFC editor for 28 years. He was succeeded by [[Joyce Reynolds]], who started working with Postel in editing the RFC's and managing the IANA since 1983. Other individuals who made important contributions to the RFCs are [[Robert Braden]],Chairman of the IRTF End to End Research Group and [[Elizabeth i(Jake) Feinler]], who lead the Stanford Research Institute Network Information Center ([[SRI-NIC]]) responsible in distributing the RFCs.<ref>[http://www.livinginternet.com/i/ia_rfc_invent.htm RFC History]</ref>
