Wash KeNIC is ours. I’m just trying to think out of the box so that some of these resources that could be in the community’s control can be used to further our ICT Agenda beyond government. We need to think out of the box and monetize resources available.

@Ali,
Hiyo yako ni tamaa :-)
Let the co.ke just stay. It cannot be sold.

That can be part of the agreement. This domain is too valuable to just ‘park’ it. I see no reason why this can’t done.

I am with @Phares on this. I don't think co.ke can be sold. If I bought it, I could then mess up all the .co.ke domains by just creating them as a subdomain of my co.ke domain - unless it is clearly stated that whoever buys co.ke is PROHIBITED from creating any subdomains on this domain.

Not really. (.co.ke) is what is currently in use. KeNIC introduced a second level system which is (.ke) and the rules are clear. You can own any domain with one or more letters before the (.ke).
So where I stand (or sit) :-) the co.ke domain is fair game.. I think KeNIC just needs to explain to the community why they are hoarding this billion dollar domain. :-)

I don't think co.ke could be sold; everything .co.ke would have to be a subdomain of whoever owns co.ke, if KE had started with .com.ke we may have been able to do this. Perhaps I'm misinformed but it would be a technical nightmare

No one uses co.ke, I would propose to @Abdalla to propose to sell the TLD (on condition that kenic manages it), and give the DNS / MX & some sub domains to Coca Cola for the domain. I bet they would be happy to spend a few dimes to boost KENIC.
