#CENTR #gov #domains #government

Fun times introducing our new #DNSSEC signing solution at the #CENTR Jamboree n Lyon. #DNS #OpenSource #rustlang

#CENTR Now, #RPP,, the [mostly for domain names] provisioning protocol which wants to replace #EPP.

An #IETF working group is designing it. The goal: REST architecture, and stuff that even a Javascript developer know (HTTPS and JSON).

How many engineers to fix the display system? (You apparently need a Windows machine to upgrade the firmware and the R&D goup only has Arch Linux and OpenBSD.)

#CENTR

Good morning, Lyon! Third and last day of the #CENTR meeting. First, upgrade the barco (« Nouveau microcode disponible »).

#CENTR
Interesting study on the consequences of #AI use on the usage of Web sites.

Old people are more susceptible than young people to stop using Google / Web sites when using ChatGPT.

The good thing is that it wlll decrease the interest for SEO :-)

#CENTR
Done with blockchain, now something much more serious: #AI use in domain name registries.

"Most of you are using it with success"

Interesting talk about the actual use of AI in the .se registry (mostly ChatGPT for legal/documentation and Copilot for code), with a lot of caveats and limits (but still useful).

For experimental coding, they use more Cursor and CodeRabbit. (Nice demo.)

#CENTR
Now, a least, a talk about #blockchain! "Can we co-exist with blockchain? A study"

No surprise, many labels of domain names are also names on various blockchains. (From 2 to 100 $)

Now, a talk from a colleague from Montenegro about the domain names regulation in China.
#CENTR #worldisation

#CENTR #DNS Talk about "Doing more with less: The secret to cost-effective, energy-efficient DNS"

First, use better software (NSD or Knot, not BIND)

Trick: use XDP

@nitot @pb

#CENTR Now, presentation about the cooperation between .pt and .is.
"What do Portugal and Iceland have in common? Atlantic ocean."

#CENTR #dDoS Interesting talk since it was not a talk: after a short introduction, people in the room were told to gather in small groups (with no group hving two persons from the same domain registry), discuss on one of the proposed statements, and synthetize their discussion at the end.
Everybody agrees that we should share more information (heard many times in the last 25 years at CENTR...)

#CENTR #DNS #dDoS "Towards a more effective strategy to deflect DDoS attacks on critical DNS anycast infrastructure"

With a DNSCON scale for problems (DNSCON 5 is all good, DNSCON 2, you start RTBH, DNSCON 1 is complete failure, see info on https://status.sidn.com).

At a governance discussion at the #CENTR meeting "Why do we still have to explain the difference between Web and Internet?"

#CENTR

"Teaching #DNS to university students" (at KTH https://www.kth.se/ and KAU https://www.kau.se/

"Assume nothing of the students" (except Unix command line, TCP/IP, etc)

"Students are required to read some RFC"

#CENTR

Now, presentation of @afnic training activities and history. https://www.afnic.fr/en/products-and-services/training/

#CENTR Our serbian colleague talks about marketing. I like the title: "How to engage Gen Z if your CEO refuses to dance on Tik Tok"

Start of the #CENTR meeting in Lyon (inside the Pencil, I've never been there). We will talk #DNS, #RDAP, #EPP, #RPP, #whois, etc.

Le sachiez-tu : cette semaine, à Lyon, il n'y a pas que les #JdLL2025, il y a aussi le Jamboree du #CENTR (réservé aux membres). https://centr.org/ Donc, tout le #DNS européen sera là.

Van 21 t/m 23 mei zijn wij goed vertegenwoordigd op de CENTR Jamboree om kennis uit te wisselen met collega's, experts en leiders van verschillende registries in de Europese ccTLD-industrie. Zien we je daar? #CENTR #JAMBOREE #SIDN
