.UG Regulator Takes A Chill Pill

Back in 2006 the The Uganda Communications Commission (UCC) expressed some concern around the .ug ccTLD. Now there seems to be a change of heart. In an interview, Patrick Mwesigwa, UCC’s technical manager said “There is no immediate intention of claiming that domain name”.

It’s been reported that entrepreneur Charles Musisi has managed Uganda domain names for the past 12 years. He got it from IANA back in 1995.

Apparently there are 4,000 .ug domain names in a country where 50,000 people use the Internet.
