Keep it simple ... the IXPs (e.g. Euro-IX) could/should provide the basis.
I.e. taking care for excellent colo, sufficient connectivity, one-stop-shop
etc.

Interested parties would install the services by themselves and would be 
responsible to run them. Parties could be CENTR, DE-NIC, ICANN, EUxxx and so
on.

I would like to know more about the CENTR sss iniative. Whom should I contact?
