Concerned,
At one time CCK was considering establishing GIXP (an idea which could have resulted into a second IXP in kenya), and so far; the project is still bed-ridden at the tendering stage.
At this point, the industry requires positive direction and support from government policy makers. It is clear, something need to be done urgently.

I think it will be more helpful if someone gave the exact details of the problems he/she is having regarding the KIXP. Eg. I am connected to provider X, and when I try to access content hosted by provider Y locally, it goes via the international route, and here are the traceroute/ping statistics. That way, it will be quite easy to pinpoint the problem and advise the affected member.

bring up the licensing issue.
You can't peer with KIXP, you peer with others at KIXP.

IIUC, if you get a Content Providers license, then you can join the
peering mesh.
