Big telcos and net neutrality
by Johan Helsingius 18 Feb '22

18 Feb '22

I am sure many of you have seen this. https://www.internetnews.me/2022/02/14/big-telcos-want-to-break-net-neutral… My first reaction was to laugh at the irony, but then I remembered that those guys still have a huge lobbying power. Is this something we want to discuss and address in the group (webinar, communique, whatever)? Julf

DNS4EU - proposal for a community response - draft
by Desiree Miloshevic 10 Feb '22

10 Feb '22

Dear members, dear all Further to the RIPE NCC’s summary of the DNS4EU Open House discussion and further to your witnessing of our earlier 'transparent wordsmithing consultation' with other RIPE - WG Chairs, I’d like to propose the following high level statement draft for your consideration. Julf and myself, as Co-Chairs are in agreement with this draft statement and Achilleas had excused himself due to his affiliation with the EC. We’d like to know if there is some support from members for having a RIPE community response on this proposal? We would really appreciate your feedback or any comments you’d wish to make or if you'd like us to work further on this. Many thanks for your consideration and the feedback, Desiree -- Coop WG Co-Chair Proposed DNS4EU RIPE community statement comments 1. RIPE community believes that governance of the DNS resolution chain, which is such an important element of everybody's Internet connectivity, should involve all stakeholders and can not solely rely on legislation and regulatory oversight. 1. RIPE Community hopes that any winning bidder will adhere to what we see as a fundamental property of the Internet, with a diverse and competitive landscape, anchored on the principles of multistakeholder Internet governance. 2. RIPE Community believes that the responsibility of well-functioning Internet access including the DNS resolution is with the access providers. We believe it should stay that way. 3. We understand that to be able to minimise some risks when the end user selects a random DNS resolver, a possible and feasible solution is to have the access provider run their local DNS resolvers and/or an additional DNS resolver as a back-up. 4. We hope that the EU could allocate DNS4EU funds to the local Internet community and encourage Internet access providers to run their local DNS resolvers. Additionally, the funds can be also used towards the development of open source software for better and affordable DNS resolution services.

Heads up on DNS4EU - idea for community high level comment.
by Desiree Miloshevic 03 Feb '22

03 Feb '22

Hi everyone I’ve made a draft, in agreement with Julf, on behalf of the Coop WG, (Achilleas excused because of his role). We’d like to share this with you before it goes out to the Coop WG members, and to involve DNS WG, since the DNS4EU discussion was mainly housed at the DNS WG. The idea is to ask members if they’d be happy for us to go out with a high level statement on this. If they say yes, we go ahead and wordsmith it. If they shoot it down, we do not do it. Looking fwd to your comments and if you like it how we would involve both or all community WGs. Tx! Desiree — DNS4EU High Level Statement 1. Any solution for DNS resolvers should adhere to the Multistakeholder governance principles and respect the principles of distributed and modular nature of the DNS. (Saying that mandated use of centralised DNS resolvers is not a good principle and should not be only based on legislation). It is questionable if the proposed solution would solve the problem described. 2. The responsibility of well-functioning Internet access including the DNS resolution is with the access providers. We believe it should stay that way. 3. We understand that to be able to minimise some risks when the end user selects a random DNS resolver, a possible and feasible solution is to have the access provider run their local DNS resolvers and/or an additional DNS resolver as a back-up. 4. The EU could allocate DNS4EU funds to the local Internet community and encourage Internet access providers to run their local DNS resolvers. Additionally, the funds can be also used towards the development of open source software for better and affordable DNS resolution services.

EU Commission publishes 'Declaration on European Digital Rights and Principles'
by Chris Buckridge 27 Jan '22

27 Jan '22

Dear colleagues, We noted last year the work going on in various quarters to develop “digital principles”. I wanted to draw your attention to the recent publication of a European Commission proposal for a 'Declaration on European Digital Rights and Principles’: https://digital-strategy.ec.europa.eu/en/library/declaration-european-digit… We previously shared the RIPE NCC’s response to an earlier EU consultation regarding this declaration: https://www.ripe.net/participate/internet-governance/multi-stakeholder-enga… While the suggestion we made there (to include a high-level commitment to maintaining a globally interoperable, unfragmented Internet) is not reflected in the new draft, we’ll certainly continue to follow this process and ensure the engagement of the RIPE community. With that in mind, we’d be very interested to hear any feedback or reactions to this new draft from the Commission. Best regards, Chris

Coop WG co-chair nomination period closes
by Desiree Miloshevic 15 Nov '21

15 Nov '21

Dear Coop WG members 1. The nomination period has now expired, and as far as we know, there have not been any nominations. 2. We didn’t have any new candidates standing for an election this time. 3. We have only been contacted by people not intending to be candidates but have previously considered the role. We would like to thank them for this feedback. 4. We suppose that WG silence is a sign that people are happy with Julf & Achilleas continuing, but would of course prefer a positive affirmation, so we encourage you to confirm your approval (louder than the silence) on the list. 5. You can also express your confirmation in the RIPE 83 Coop session, where the co-chair selection is a brief point in the Agenda. This can be also combined with the discussion of what could co-chairs and all the members do to get this WG to do good stuff. We also look forward to ourWG session, Tuesday Nov 23rd, at 16:00 -17:00 UTC+1. Desiree, Julf, Achilleas --

RIPE cooperation WG Co-chair selection
by Johan Helsingius 03 Nov '21

03 Nov '21

Dear cooperation WG members, We are hereby inviting interested parties to express their interest in serving as co-chairs for the cooperation WG. Two of us, Julf and Achilleas, are up for re-election, and while we both are happy to continue as co-chairs, the group might feel that it is time for more new blood. The Cooperation WG chair Selection process https://www.ripe.net/participate/ripe/wg/active-wg/coop/cooperation-wg-chai… states that interested parties have two weeks to make their interest known via the mailing list, or directly to the Chair/s. That means a deadline of 8 November, thus hopefully making it possible to announce the results by the RIPE83 WG session on Tuesday, 23 November. Your Cooperation WG Co-Chairs Julf, Achilleas and Desiree

Update on NIS2: European Parliament votes to exclude DNS root servers
by Marco Hogewoning 29 Oct '21

29 Oct '21

Dear colleagues, Last night the European Parliament's Committee on Industry Research and Energy (ITRE) approved a set of amendments on the NIS 2 proposal, with a majority of 70 votes to 3 and one abstention. The MEPs also voted in favour of opening the negotiations with the other institutions. https://www.europarl.europa.eu/news/en/press-room/20211022IPR15610/cybersec… Crucially for this community, these amendments include changes to the way the DNS service providers are included and importantly, the parliament's proposal is to remove the DNS root-servers from the scope of the proposed directive. We are pleased to find the parliament and its rapporteur, Mr Groothuis, agree with our views that the DNS root and the root-servers should not be subject to (national) legislation, quoting the justification from his report: "Root name servers should be out of scope; regulating them is contrary to the EU’s vision of a “single, open, neutral, free, secure and un-fragmented network” and could encourage and empower states advocating for a top-down, state-controlled Internet governance approach, instead of the multi-stakeholder approach." To be clear, this is just one step in the legislative process, but a very important milestone. Meanwhile on the side of the EU member states ("EU Council") The Horizontal Working Party on Cyber Issues is also busy discussing their views and find consensus on the Council's position. Once that is done, the negotiations between Parliament, Council and Commission can start and develop a final compromise text. Although these meetings are closed, we have been receiving information that the exclusion of root is being discussed. We hope to find that the member states also support our view that matters concerning the root-server operations should be addressed in a multistakeholder setting and will agree to exclude the DNS root-servers from the proposal. We will send further updates to this list when we have them, Best, Marco Hogewoning RIPE NCC

EU Update: LIBE Committee votes on NIS2 and CER
by Marco Hogewoning 13 Oct '21

13 Oct '21

Dear colleagues, I'd like to provide a short update on some of the European legislative proposals which we are tracking, especially as these proposals probably have wider implications for the Internet industry and the members of this community. This update concerns decisions made by the European Parliament's commission on Civil Liberties (LIBE) regarding amendments on two different proposals: One being a new set of rules for providers of critical infrastructure, or "resilience of critical entities" (proposal 2020/0365). The other set of amendments concerns the proposal for a new Network and Information Security directive, or NIS2 in short (proposal 2020/0359). Important in the amendments on the critical entities draft is that MEPs are proposing to alter the scope of the directive and suggest to include language that defines "European significance" for entities that offer a similar service in at least 3 member states. With agreement to this set of amendments the parliament has now adopted its position and is ready to enter the next stage of the process, the so called trilogue in which a final text will be negotiated between the European Commission, the European Parliament and the European Council (member states). A press release, which has references to the directive and the proposed amendments is available at https://www.europarl.europa.eu/news/en/press-room/20211006IPR14307/essentia… The same committee also discussed and agreed to a set of amendments concerning the NIS2 proposal. However, in this case the parliament's ITRE committee is leading on the dossier. This means that the proposed changes from the LIBE committee will be brought as input to the ITRE deliberations and have to be merged with theirs to form a final set of proposed changes that the ITRE committee will then vote on. This final vote is now scheduled for 28 October. Unfortunately not all the amendments are publicly available but the main opinion of the LIBE committee, which contains a large set of them, can be found at https://www.europarl.europa.eu/doceo/document/LIBE-PA-693822_EN.pdf We will continue to monitor the developments as the ITRE proposed amendments also contain changes in language and scope, which would remove the DNS root-servers from the scope of the directive. As I explained above, the parliamentary vote on amended text is only the first step towards the final negotiations to find a compromise. We believe however that, if the ITRE committee agrees to exclude the DNS root servers, it would mark a significant milestone. Such a position would provide a great starting point for the trilogue. Where we hope the other parties involved will also agree that the operations of the DNS root name-servers should should be excluded from the scope. On the grounds that core functionality like this, having global significance, should be left to the multistakeholder model of Internet governance.

Help us Build a Sustainable European Cloud
by Michael J. Oghia 30 Sep '21

Hi everyone, Over the summer, my organisation – the Sustainable Digital Infrastructure Alliance, SDIA – published a three-part series introducing our manifesto for a sustainable European cloud, one that’s open-source, fair, and creates economic opportunities for all. Such digital infrastructure will reflect European values, and provide a blueprint that others around the world can draw inspiration from to further develop their own digital economies. I posted an article today on RIPE Labs with a summary of each part, an invitation to read them, and a call to action to help us make our vision a reality. You can read it at: https://labs.ripe.net/author/michael_oghia/help-us-build-a-sustainable-euro… In case anyone would like to discuss further, please don't hesitate to reach out.

UN-IGF DC-ISSS survey into Internet of Things security and policy
by Wout de Natris 27 Sep '21

27 Sep '21

Dear colleague, In this email you find a link to a survey on Internet of Things security and policy. The survey is a part of research currently undertaken within the UN-IGF’s Dynamic Coalition Internet Standards, Security and Safety’s Working Group Security by design – Internet of Things. For clarity, a short introduction. The Dynamic Coalition on Internet Standards, Security and Safety (DC-ISSS) brings together key stakeholders from the technical community, civil society, government policymakers, regulators, and corporate and individual adopters, with the shared goal of making online activity and interaction more secure and safer by achieving more widespread and rapid deployment of existing Internet standards and ICT best practices. (You can find more information on the DC-ISSS, the three working groups and their respective mission statements on the IGF website. You can also join the DC-ISSS here. https://www.intgovforum.org/multilingual/content/dynamic-coalition-on-inter….) Security by design is a prominent topic in the DC-ISSS’ workplan. The survey’s outcomes will assist it to define results that will be presented on at the IGF in Katowice, this December and will become an integral part of the policy recommendations, guidelines, toolkits and action/capacity building programmes the DC-ISSS foresees for 2022 and beyond. Please fill it in at your earliest convenience but no later than Friday 22 October at 12.00 UTC. Estimated time, ca. 10 minutes.
