“Hosting settings benefit from periodic attention.” “Difficult notifications can reach beyond support as a sandbox.” “Knowledge of IT standards, can be transferred with training material.” “Web IDs are in preparation. ‘Peter Jansen’ cannot be an identification.” “The Netherlands could set up a group of experts with global overview.”
Actions, I think, that the Netherlands must decide on
Establish a Governing Board. – This board consists of a group of individuals responsible for overseeing the activities, policies, and general direction of an organization. – Appointing a Minister of Digital Affairs may hinder technical and functional oversight;
Ministry of General Affairs:
Govern IT under a Cabinet Office. And dismiss unnecessary advisory bodies. – UK’s Cabinet Office falls under the Ministry of General Affairs. If realized in NL: “Kabinetsbureau”. – UK’s Government Digital Service (GDS) operates hierarchically under the Cabinet Office;
Generate training material for further education from the European Cloud, which is in preparation. – The AWS GovCloud in the United States, is managed by Amazon. – Organizations using GovCloud must verify that all individuals with access to the environment are U.S. citizens. – GovCloud cannot be used by foreign nationals or organizations, even if they have legitimate access to other AWS services;
Work on a Dutch or EU Digital Service for generic application software related to DNS and registries. – Well-considered proposals, RFC and non-RFC, could feed the IANA organization.
Ministry of Economic Affairs:
Include automated task costs in just one annual web domain fee;
Include a change in a registrar’s own data in its period costs;
Eliminate all registry discounts. A volume discount causes unfair competition.
Ministry of the Interior and Ministry of Justice:
List areas of expertise, engage specialists, ensure dynamic interaction and make decisions;
Make the country of the real domain user leading for country-specific Web Domain Services (WDSs). – For the NL, the “Stichting Inlichtingenbureau” in Utrecht could assist for a new “Webdomeindienst”; – Register data officers with WDS are confirmed by his/her director in that country;
Maintain IT knowledge with a long-standing EU group of stakeholders;
NL / EU / US and including generic top-level domain zones:
Discuss global design and programming of Registration Data Access Protocol software. – Introduce in RDAP an emergency entity in order to formally organize backup to get access;
Generate web IDs that start with the ISO2 country code, for business entities and natural persons;
Plan verification of web domain users indexed by web ID, starting with modeling in RDAP like mine;
Use the developed Domain Control Register ®, based on the real web domain user. – Report regarding expired HTTPS, security.txt or DANE via email. Perhaps a DCR revenue model;
Get custom fields approved and listed for standardization in the dynamic RDAP protocol. – A simple data structure has been designed for the registry details;
