[dns-wg] European Resolver Policy

Those of you who were on the WG Call last week will of seen Andrew Campling from 419 Consulting give a presentation on the newly developed European Resolver policy.

https://www.ripe.net/participate/ripe/wg/active-wg/dns/remote-sessions/remote-session-21-april-2021

This is an attempt to get resolver operators to operate in a standard way safeguarding the privacy of their users, some of the content is based around:


RFC 8932            Recommendations for DNS Privacy Service Operators

This policy document has already received some positive feedback and some organisations have already come out in support.

My view is this kind of policy would be more likely to get traction if it had the rubber stamp of a well known organisation behind it, and so I had two ideas to try and make this happen.


  1.  DNS WG Members review the policy, provide feedback to the authors for potential updates/changes and then when we are happy it is rubber stamped as approved by the RIPE DNS WG
  2.  Andrew (and other volunteers), turn this into a RIPE Document format which the WG then discuss and modify as needed and then that goes through the process to ratify it as an official RIPE Document.


I’d be very happy to hear other members views on whether either of the above are a good/bad idea or If there is another approach we should take or indeed if the WG should not take this on as a work item at all for any reason.


Thanks

Brett
