Congrats Shem and to all the Southern Sudanese people. This will be a popular domain name not only in South Sudan but with the web users as a whole. I can't help imagining names like go.ss cla.ss plus many other interesting names. I hope it will be unrestricted like Somalia's .so for the benefit of the global internet community(a good source of foreign exchnage earnings for South Sudan :-) ) ________________________________ From: Shem Ochuodho <[email protected]> To: [email protected] Cc: I-Network Uganda <[email protected]>; EThinkTank Tanzania <[email protected]>; PICTA Kenya-LIst <[email protected]>; KICTAnet ICT Policy Discussions <[email protected]> Sent: Wednesday, August 10, 2011 8:54 AM Subject: [kictanet] SOUTH SUDAN - Dot-SS Internet Domain - We Got IT!
