@Ali, Hiyo yako ni tamaa :-) Let the co.ke just stay. It cannot be sold. On 28 December 2017 at 09:36, Ali Hussein <ali@hussein.me.ke> wrote:

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.

@Phares
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.
