Launched by CERT? I can't find anywhere (CERT website, github) these are related. Do you have sources?

CERT stands for Computer Emergency Response Team.

CIRCL, the supposed operator behind gcve.eu [1], "is the CERT for the private sector, communes and non-governmental entities in Luxembourg" [2].

There's no outward indication of the authors. It looks official enough, but my experience is that government/foundation types like to splash their brand all over their works, and there's no branding.

The chap behind it seems pretty well-qualified, though: https://www.cedricbonhomme.org

I was asking myself the same thing. Is the "CIRCL - Computer Incident Response Center Luxembourg" a partner organisation to CERT? I don't follow this very closely, but it felt like there was some kind of global network. I'd be curious if there was a continuity plan of some sort. There is also https://cert.europa.eu/ which might be used interchangeably.
Could this be CERT-EU[0]?

Fun fact: US-CERT was the predecessor to CISA[1].

No, it's CIRCL, which is a CERT in Luxembourg. https://www.circl.lu
There are many CERTs. CIRCL is a CERT.
