Hey Walu,

Your absence was noticeable, the meeting went on well, most of the matters discussed were inhouse, notable topics were the progress on the local dispute resolution mechanism being established at Kenic to arbitrate on domain related disputes, we were also briefed on the KeNIC Strategic plan which is being implemented in phases and going by what was presented the future looks bright (at least the Financial report demonstrated this), google also did a very interesting presentation highlighting opportunities that the internet is likely to offer in the near future and the need for strategic partnerships (Kenic intends to work with registrars to make sure they hit a target of 50000 .Ke domains) , the organisers promised to put up all this information on their website , i am sure it is being compiled somewhere. And lest i forget we were taken through the new look KeNIC website whose aim is to improve how the TLDs clients interact with it. I looked at the Strategic Plan which seems great, i am still searching for their digital strategy which i hope is tucked somewhere in the website, as you can see, a lot of this were inhouse issues with brief comments on KeNICS role at ICANN. (Participation and Hosting number 37)

Best Regards

I missed the above AGM that took place last week? Anyone willing to give us updates/briefs on key highlights/what transpired or did not transpire?

Ave scanned their website www.kenic.or.ke but nothing uploaded yet...last minutes were for 2009, wonder where 2010 minutes are.  Anyway, am specifically interested in.

a) what is the .KENIC position with regard to dot.africa?
b) how does KENIC expect to be impacted by the creation of dot.africa?
c) what is the current market structure/position between the tld dot.Ke and the secondary domains? 2yrs ago it was quite an issue.?
