Thank you all!
You're statements of support have been overwhelming! Very good for my
self-esteem ;). I'm very much looking forward to my new role and working
together with João and Moritz.
Thanks again and Cheers,
Willem

Colleagues,
The deadline for the DNS co-chair candidate volunteering is now over.
We have a single excellent candidate.
The period to express support (or concern) for the candidate starts now
and runs until Wednesday, 26 October 2022.
Below find a few words from the candidate.

Willem Toorop
I propose myself as a candidate to follow-up Shane as DNS working group
co-chair.
DNS has been the focus of my working life for the past 12 years and I've
been loving it. The DNS has a lively, creative and very pleasant
technical community and I truly enjoy working in and with that community.
DNS plays (more and more) a central role in the tussle around the
responsibilities and the capabilities of the different stakeholders on
the Internet (i.e. the content vs network operators vs end-users). A
good venue for this debate is the RIPE DNS working group. A well
balanced program on the RIPE DNS working group is crucial for forming a
well-founded point of view for all the participants in this debate. I
think that I, as an open source DNS software developer, have a good
perspective on the DNS world, the current state of the art and the
possible future directions of development, and that I am in a good
position to help out in assembling such a program.
Sorry if the previous paragraph sounds (a bit) pompous. I just want to
say that I would love to help out to put in the spotlight a well
balanced selection of all the interesting new stuff that's going on in
the DNS and that I think it is very important to do so too!
Also, I am a huge fan of the current co-chairs João and Moritz (and of
course Shane too!!!) and I would be honored and delighted to work with
you guys!

Cheers,
