Thanks for this, Nick.
I just wanted to highlight the fact that the root
name servers are explicitly exempted from the directive (in
recital 32, article 6.20 and annex II). This exemption was
something that the RIPE NCC actively advocated, along with
Netnod and others in the technical community, and we’re really
pleased to see that our collective efforts paid off.
Thank you to everyone who played a role in helping
to strengthen the directive in this way, and any other ways you
may have contributed. There will be many more proposals and
opportunities to help shape things in a positive direction -
don’t hesitate to reach out to us to learn more about how we can
potentially cooperate on these matters.
Best regards,
Suzanne
