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.
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 as 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;
