Great news João :-)
Both are excellent candidates, but my vote (predictably for most people I
guess) goes to Moritz :-)
What Roland said. Both Brett and Moritz would make great co-chairs.
I'd like to express my support for Moritz, having a bit more focus on
the academic side.

Dear all,
The deadline for DNS WG co-chair candidate volunteering is now over.
I am happy to announce that we have two great candidates.

Moritz Müller
-----------------
Dear RIPE WG,
I would like to volunteer to become a DNS working group co-chair. As a
frequent participant and an occasional presenter at this working group I
would like to help making sure that the program of the working group meetings
continues to stay interesting and relevant.
I'm working for the research department of the Dutch ccTLD operator SIDN for
more than 6 years. There, amongst other topics, I have been studying
different aspects of DNSSEC and domain name abuse. Also, I'm a guest
researcher at the University of Twente in the Design and Analysis of
Communication Systems group (DACS). I believe that my experience working in
industry and academia will help me finding and selecting speakers that
provide relevant and novel insights to the working group members. Please feel
free to contact me in case of any questions or if you would like to get to
know me a bit better.

——————
Over the past 20 plus years I have worked with DNS holding a variety of
industry related roles ranging from working for a global ISP to working at RIPE
NCC (Leading the team who run K Root). I have also worked at ICANN (Assisting
with the GTLD Programme) and for the last 13 years Nominet, helping to keep .uk
safe and stable.
I have designed, deployed and managed DNS and DNSSEC implementations both small
and large and have been responsible for designing and operating Nominet’s GTLD
DNS/DNSSEC Platform which has now grown to operating 80 TLDs. I am an
experienced leader having led various engineering teams across operations
during my time at Nominet. I have and continue to enjoy playing an active role
in the DNS Community, giving presentations at OARC, RIPE and ICANN amongst
others. I’m currently serving as the Vice Chair of the CSC at ICANN, I am an
active member of the ICANN TLD Ops steering committee and have been a member of
the OARC PC for the past year.
I would relish the challenge of working with the other chairs to bring some
fresh ideas to the DNS-WG.

Regards, see you soon,
Joao on behalf of the DNS WG co-chairs
