Hi Hank, all,

A number of us from the RIPE NCC (and others from the RIPE community) were in 
yesterday’s HLIG meeting.

There was a presentation on DNS4EU, and I’m trying to track down those slides 
and whether they’ll be made public - at this point, there’s nothing on the 
site, but we’ll certainly share any slides (or a public report on the meeting) 
when they become available.

The significant output was that the Commission expects to have a public Call 
for Proposals around the end of this year, as part of Connecting Europe 
Facility (CEF 2) programme, for an EU-governed public DNS resolver service. 
Obviously the CfP will contain more detail when it is made public.

This is also in line with the Commission’s statement back in June 2021 in 
section 1.6 of this document:
https://data.consilium.europa.eu/doc/document/ST-10137-2021-ADD-1/en/pdf

In the meantime, others may be able to share insights, and we will share links 
to public documents from yesterday’s session as we obtain them.

Cheers
Chris
