This is the official github of the project. https://github.com/eu-digital-green-certificates/ https://github.com/eu-digital-green-certificates/ There are Android and iOS apps for QR reading, although they don't point to the production certificate chains so can't be used to verify "real" EU certs.

Practically all committers are German... How surprising ;)

  I don‘t seem to get the point of this comment, but the reason for this is that the EU Commission has assigned this project to Deutsche Telekom and SAP, two German companies (as is explained in the README).

    The point is Germany having too much power over such matters obviously.

      Corona Warn App is the most successful implementation of a Covid tracing app in Europe. Italy's Immuni was good as well, but unfortunately politics and demented policies basically mangled one of the best pieces of Public Administration software my country had ever produced. In this regard, I can't be anything but satisfied that the Germans are taking the lead on a EU-wide policy. Also, I got vaccinated here in Berlin and since a week I already have a perfectly usable digital pass that I validated at the chemist's counter. For one, to be honest, let's give all the kudos to those who deserve them. Side note: we're so generous that I hear of Americans here in Berlin who are getting the pass too by showing their American vaccination documents and a proof of residence in Germany. Meaning: the system is solid, but surprisingly flexible.

        The danish version is called "Smittestop", which roughly translates to "Stop the infection". It has cost 4.3M euros and have detected 76.115 people, which amounts to 420 DKK or 56 euros per person. To me that sounds quite expensive and not like a success.

        How do decide what is cheap bs expensive for early detection? Sure it “sounds” expensive but it would be cheaper if there were more detections, which you don’t really want.

        So you want to translate this into how much infections it _prevented_ and then compare it against the cost of a COVID-19 infection for society. I don’t have the numbers but my gut feeling says that 56€ is a bargain.

That is the SAP/T-Systems repository. It contains the implementation. The main EU project is part of the eHealth Network and can be found here: https://github.com/ehn-dcc-development/ https://github.com/ehn-dcc-development/ Disclaimer: I'm working on it as part of the Dutch team, mainly contributing to the schema but have also helped get the gateway up and running.

Wondering why they haven't licensed it under GPL3.0 so at least other countries would have to also open source their apps if they reused the code. Also if some company reused the code to implement some malicious verifier that do tracking it would be easier to find out.

  You want to err on the side of letting proprietary closed-source code bases (think "electronic health record" systems) adopt the reference implementation, even if they don't give back. Otherwise the proprietary folks will come up with a competing implementation that meets their non-technical (licensing) requirements.
