Pawel vs. AI 1:0.

In order to stop AI Slop in Domain Connect Templates I implemented a review step asking template providers to conduct a manual test and link test results in the PR description. README has beed optimized for AI agents with steps to follow and where the user has to be active.

This worked good, first few PRs arrived in good quality. 🎉

Now this one arrived... just imagine AI gave instruction to the user... but he/she just copy pasted it to PR. 🤡

Domain Pulse 2026 liegt hinter mir – und ich verlasse St. Gallen voller Inspiration!
Die Agenda war gespickt mit Themen wie New Work, KI, Security und der Rolle von TLD-Registries. Noch wertvoller: das persönliche Wiedersehen mit Kollegen von Switch, nic.at und DENIC-Mitgliedern.
Mein persönliches Highlight: Cornelia Puhzes Vortrag zu Human-Centred Security – anschaulich und interaktiv.
Danke an Switch für Einladung & Organisation!

Ab in die Schweiz – Domain Pulse 2026 steht vor der Tür!

Der Markt ist in Bewegung: NIS2-Umsetzung in vollem Gange, die neue gTLD-Runde, DNS4Members, Entwicklung von RPP. So viele Themen!

Ich freue mich auf die Gespräche mit den Kollegen der DACH-TLDs sowie zahlreichen DENIC-Mitgliedern, Registraren und Industrievertretern.

I started the strategy of writing instructions to AI agents in oder to prevent me talking to bot in the review process... let's see if it helps!

Sorry for the rant. I don't do it very often, but screaming in the room didn't help. 🧵 2/2

I know this is passive aggressive...

Being a reviewer of public project starts to be very challenging.
AI tools produce crap, don't read or understand specifications, don't follow PR issue template instructions. That's ok, tools are not always perfect.

But if people then issue PR without even looking into them (both PR description and the content) then it is just wasting time and disrespectful IMHO. 🧵 1/2

If you'd like to learn why Domain Connect shall be on your radar if you are a registrar or a TLD registry, take a look at my guest post at APNIC Blog:

Domain Connect: A missing piece in the DNS toolbox | APNIC Blog

Guest Post: Domain renewal rates directly correlate with usage. Domain Connect creates a standardized way for service providers and DNS providers to communicate. Users complete setup in seconds with just a few clicks.

#REGEXT and #DNSOP sessions focused on the protocols we rely on every day: #RDAP, #EPP, and #DNS. Important work tackling current challenges and shaping future development.

Full report coming soon through the CENTR website.

5/5 🏁

Historic moment: the very first #DomainConnect working group session!

With just 2 weeks of prep time (working group was approved right before the meeting), we were thrilled with the community interest and valuable feedback.

4/5

The #RPP working group made excellent progress this week. Requirements are almost in their final state, and we're advancing the protocol itself through architecture, core, and data objects drafts.

Exciting developments ahead!

3/5

The traditional IETF Hackathon was the perfect kickoff - lots of discussions on #RPP, coding sessions, and even DNS chocolate as a sweet bonus! 🍫

Great way to dive into the week ahead.
