[Apologies for duplicate e-mails] Dear Colleagues, At the RIPE 55 Meeting, Ondr(ej Surý (CZ.NIC) made a proposal to the RIPE NCC Services Working Group suggesting that the scope of the RIPE NCC's DNS Monitoring (DNSMON) service be extended to permit the monitoring of ENUM domains.

The DNSMON document has also been simplified and republished as a new RIPE Document.
