The .ke CcTLD was first delegated to the [[Root Zone]] in April 1993. Two men, Dr. [[Shem J. Ochuodho]] (administrative) and [[Randy Bush]] (technical) served as the primary contacts for the TLD, and both managed it on a volunteer basis. | |||
Around 2000, a community of stakeholders, both public and private, collaborated to form a participatory, community-based non-profit, dedicated to ensuring the technical and administrative well-being of the .ke CcTLD. This community grew to become [[KENIC]], the definitive non-profit dedicated to managing .ke. <ref>[https://www.iana.org/reports/2002/ke-report-20dec02.html IANA Report of Re-Delegation of .KE.

KENIC has adopted a registry/registrar model. Kenyan based companies comprise the bulk of registrars. Registrations are reserved for Kenyan residents. <ref>[http://dotafrica.blogspot.com/p/african-cctlds.html African CcTLDs. Retrieved 09 Feb 2016.]</ref> | |||
