Listers Is this headline misleading or what? :-) A revised competition report by the telecommunications industry regulator has dropped the controversial proposal calling for the splitting of Safaricom into separate business units, drawing the ire of its rivals. Airtel, Kenya’s second-biggest telecommunications company after Safaricom, hit out at the Communications Authority of Kenya (CA), saying failure to finalise the dominance debate and watering down of the report was hurting the smaller operators.

Of discovery and bending the rules in 2018
by Mbugua Njihia 29 Dec '17

29 Dec '17

We must challenge ourselves to deliver on a number of concept proofs to demystify and make almost tangible, the benefits and value that we constantly push as technology pundits; driving the adoption curve beyond early adopters and into the majority. Markets have a way of serving curveballs that can blindside even the best of us. Here’s to hoping we can have a decent number of experiments conducted and some pleasant outcomes at this time next year - http://www.mbuguanjihia.com/business/discovery-bending-rules-2018.html *Regards,* Mbugua Njihia ᐧ

Re: [kictanet] Ni.ke hits the Kshs 1 billion (or $9.7m) mark in the premium domain auction of the .ke second level domain launch (Warning: This could be #FakeNews :-) )
by ceo 28 Dec '17

28 Dec '17

Dear Ali and Washington, I can see you want KeNIC to be a billion dollar organization :) My comment on co.ke is that, we have just started rolling out the second level Dot ke domains. In fact we are yet to reach general availability for us to gauge how the registrants are able to juggle between the 3rd level and 2nd level domains. We need to give the market some time to settle with the new product. My feeling is that for the time being, co.ke remain reserved as it is the major flagship of KeNIC, which gives extensions to most business organisation. Putting it out for auction will expose KeNIC to serious litigation from all the 3rd level co.ke owners. I appreciate the various suggestion put forward how the risk can be reduced by having an agreement forbidding creation of sub domains of co.ke. But for the time being, let us roll out the rest of the 2nd level domains and reserve the co.ke. We may open up discussion in future on how to handle it after the market has got used to the current 2nd levels ready for uptake. Thank you.

Fwd: Passing of ISOC Kenya Chapter President: Eng. Martin King Obuya
by Grace Mutung'u (Bomu) 24 Dec '17

24 Dec '17

Passing on the sad news from the ISOC Kenya list. [image: ISOC Kenya Chapter Logo] We are bringing the very sad news that our ISOC Kenya Chapter President, Eng. Martin King Obuya, passed away this morning. Martin had been quite sick for the past four weeks. An ailment he bore with great fortitude. Eng. Martin, like many of us, had a passion for open and inclusive innovation and Internet development. He will be sorely missed. The family and friends will gather today, from 6 PM at his residence(Nine Planets Apartment, Hse. Pluto 1, on Kabernet Rd, Nairobi) for prayers and funeral preparations. Let us join the family in prayers and support during this trying moment. Details on the funeral will be shared later. May Martin's memory be a blessing and a source of comfort to all. Blessed holiday. *Executive Council, Internet Society Kenya Chapter* info(a)isoc.or.ke -- Grace Mutung'u Skype: gracebomu @Bomu PGP ID : 0x33A3450F
