Dear all,
With this email I would like to put my name forward as a candidate for the DNS WG cochair role as announced yesterday by the current co-chairs.
I have been involved in the DNS WG at RIPE for a long time, contributing when and where possible throughout the years during my time at the RIPE NCC, ISC, Dyn, Bondis and APNIC. This trajectory has made me fairly familiar with the DNS world, its history and evolution as well as the current topics under discussion.
As you might also know, I am currently co-chair of the Routing WG, a role which I am intending to pass on to a new co-chair at the WG meeting during RIPE 75 (Email regarding this matter is not yet out due to the fact I want to finalise the text by talking to the other Routing WG co-chair before sending the announcement to the list and summer has made coordination a bit harder).
As has been the case for the last several years, one of my goals continues to be to bring to RIPE new interesting topics and new interesting people so we can all grow.
Hopefully I will have the wg’s support I'll fly support Jao as co-chair for the DNS working group.
So long -Ralf
