Subject: [Skunkworks] Launch of the Dot Africa Government Reserved
Names List (RNL) Policy
To: Skunkworks Mailing List <skunkworks@lists.my.co.ke>

The Dot Africa project has now reached a stage where African Governments
are being offered an opportunity to reserve domain names that are of
National significance before the dot Africa Top Level Domain is opened to
general domain name registrations. Respective Governments will be required
to redeem the reserved names within the timelines set in the RNL policy
using the prescribed systems and tools that have been developed to
facilitate efficient submission and redemption of reserved names.

The African Union (AU) through the Uniform SA (ZA Central Registry) which
is the appointed registry for dot Africa has developed several policy
documents, among them the Reserve Name List (RNL) policy that will be used
to govern the process of reserving government names. The RNL policy,
guidelines and portal are available at the following links (URLs):

   1. Reserve Name List Policy: www.africainonespace.org/rnlpolicy
   2. Reserve Name List Guidelines: http://africainonespace.org/rnlguide
   3. Reserve Name List Portal: http://africainonespace.org/rnl

The RNL policy provides for reservation of the following categories:

   1. Geographic names - Maximum of 100 names
   2. Religious Cultural and Linguistic - Maximum of 100 names
   3. Economic and public Interest Names - Maximum of 100 names
   4. Offensive Names - Maximum 25 names

Kenya’s representative to the Government Advisory Committee (GAC) of ICANN
(CCK), Kenya’s Advisor to the Government Advisory Committee (GAC) of ICANN
(Ministry of ICT) and KENIC have compiled the following list of government
names for the Republic of Kenya and is inviting stakeholders for review and
input before the list is submitted to the AU for implementation by end of
January 2014. Kindly go through the list and give feedback on names that
Brand Kenya Board would like to have added on the list or suggest areas
that you recommend change.

Comments should be sent by 17th January 2014.
