Just some notes: -Kindly recheck the comments page.."some code is exposed" -Links to our blogs and social network pages ought to be put at the site. Good work guys, lets keep on keeping on. NB: Remember content is king in most websites..so lets have it well brought out. Best regards, Ronald On Thu, May 31, 2012 at 8:29 AM, Paul M <paulitrix@gmail.com> wrote:

Good works Paul, Paul and Brenda. Now that the website is IPv6 enabled, why is it important? If I can URL http://198.32.67.24 and get to the ISOC website, can I also URL http://[2001:43f8:10:50::2650] Regards On 31 May 2012 08:29, Paul M <paulitrix@gmail.com> wrote:

*hey, have a look at... * *------- * *c. IPv6 * Esther Wanjau, the Chair of the Kenya IPv6 Task Force, made a presentation explaining the background, mandate and composition of the Task Force. Recognizing that the IPv4 addresses were being depleted, the Government took measures to ensure a smooth transition to IPv6 by 2012. The Task Force, consisting of partners from various public, private, academic and civil society organizations was mandated to develop strategies for eventual deployment of IPv6. The Task Force was focusing on awareness creation and capacity building. To this end, equipment has been acquired and the next step would be training on IPv6. *Follow up Comments* There was a need to deploy IPv6 as fast as possible without necessarily training the users on the technical aspects as this was not very important to most. However, the human development aspects such as having home equipment with IP addresses could be made known to users, once the technology had been rolled out. http://www.mbuguanjihia.com/2010/minutes-of-the-2nd-meeting-of-local-innovat...

@Kivuva You don't need to insert the IP address. The site uses dual stack i.e. it can be accessed either by IPv4 aware devices OR IPv6 aware devices. One only needs to make sure the domain name (isoc.or.ke) is mapped to an IPv6 address and thats all!!
