DNS and K-root Quarterly Planning

We have three objectives in publishing our quarterly planning:

We want to be transparent about the work we are doing
We want your input on that work and our planning, and we want to document that input, and let you know if and when we can add your suggestions to our planning
We want an open dialogue with members and community on developments around DNS and K-root

We launched this initiative in Q2 2022, and we are open to improving what we publish here and how we do that. So let us know if there are ways we can better present our plans.

We will update this page as our activities progress and continue to share updates on RIPE Labs, on the DNS Working Group (WG) mailing list, and at RIPE Meetings and other events.

Q2 2024 Plans

Last updated: 25 March 2024

Item 1: Operating system update of DNS servers

We will finish updating the operating system of our DNS servers as part of the regular maintenance we do on all our systems.

With this change, we can offer ease of maintenance and benefit our members as they could make changes to their DNS configurations more easily.

Status: In progress

Community Input on Planning

We want the community to contribute to our plans and suggest additional work items. Please share your comments with us or post them on the RIPE NCC Membership Discussion and DNS WG mailing lists. We'll also monitor all the other channels where people talk about these services.

We will be adding your feedback on this page as we progress with our plans.

Archived Quarterly Plans

You can find our plans from the previous quarters on this page. The Q2 2024 plans will be archived once we publish the Q3 2024 planning.
