Hi Randy,

there are 16 ccTLDs for which ns.ripe.net and ns.eu.net are both 
secondary. So we will definitely request those ccTLDs to look for a 
new host as soon as possible.
The rest can take bit more time to think what they want to do since 
ns.eu.net will keep running.

We are offering secondary service on ns.ripe.net for any ccTLD that 
we weren't sencodaring for, as are other people.

The idea is not to have ns.eu.net running for ever, just to enable 
people to have time to take rational decisions, without the fear of 
having the server going away because of some unexpected turn of 
events.
