Liaisons are appointed by the IAB when the IAB feels that conditions warrant appointing a specific person to such a task. Note that such appointments are rare as the best way for organizations to work with the IETF is to do so within the working groups –Liaison statements are here:

doc.: IEEE /0097r0 Submission January 2013 Dorothy Stanley, Aruba NetworksSlide 13 Dynamic Host Configuration (dhc) WG See The DHC WG is responsible for reviewing DHCP options or other extensions (for both IPv4 and IPv6). –The DHC WG is expected to review all proposed extensions to DHCP to ensure that they are consistent with the DHCP specification and other option formats, that they do not duplicate existing mechanisms, etc. –Generally speaking, the DHC WG will not be responsible for evaluating the semantic content of proposed options. Similarly, the ownership of specifications typically belongs the relevant working group that needs more functionality from DHCP, not the DHC WG. The DHC WG coordinates reviews of the proposed options together with those working groups. It is required that those working groups have consensus to take on the work and that the work is within their charter. Exceptionally, with AD agreement, this same process can also be used for Individual Submissions originating outside WGs. Updates [January 2013] –Of interest: also –New: –New:
