The taskforce is chaired by the Ministry of Information and Communications. The Commission is a member.<br></div><div><br></div><div>The work of the task force was to develop policies and guidelines to make Kenya achieve a nationwide transition to IPv6 by 2012. The members of the taskforce were KENET, KENIC, KICTANET, University of Nairobi, KRA, CA, KEBS, TESPOK. <a href="http://www.eaigf.or.ke/files/2010_KIGF_IP_Version_6_Esther.pdf">http://www.eaigf.or.ke/files/2010_KIGF_IP_Version_6_Esther.pdf</a></div><div><br></div><div>The CS Hon. Mucheru was asking if there is capacity on v6 implementation in Kenya. Well, the University of Nairobi rolled unicast IPv6 addresses to all hosts within their network a year ago, including on all ubiquitous devices. I know because I was incharge of that exercise. Also, some of the trainers within the continent on v6 implementation are Kenyan. Michuki has been a leader in advocating and training for a long time.</div><div><br></div><div>Regards</div></div><div class="gmail_extra"><br clear="all"><div><div class="gmail_signature" data-smartmail="gmail_signature">______________________<br>Mwendwa Kivuva, Nairobi, Kenya<br><a href="http://twitter.com/lordmwesh" target="_blank">twitter.com/lordmwesh</a><br><br><br></div></div>

networks. As v4 runs out – that dual-stack becomes more and more critical because it will enable the full transition when the time comes for it. How soon that will come is hard to say – but it is coming.</span><span style="color:black"></span></div>
