.me is an Internet country code top-level domain (ccTLD) that has been assigned to Montenegro.
This follows Montenegro's June 3, 2006 declaration of independence from Serbia and Montenegro, which used the code YU.
The .me registry is operated by the University of Montenegro on behalf of the government. A two-year transition period is to be provided for existing .yu names to be transferred to .me.
In addition to declaring .me to be independent of .yu, a new .rs domain is to be deployed for Serbian use.
Introducing .me
ICANN has resolved[1] that .me is to be delegated to the Government of Montenegro with the former .yu domain to be operated temporarily by the .rs domain registry, Serbian National Register of Internet Domain Names, until its eventual abolition on or before 30 September 2009.
On 11 September 2007, delegation of name servers has been approved by IANA[2], establishing .me. The .me domain became active on 24 September 2007 and a "Public Invitation for selection of the Agent for domain registration under the national Internet domain of Montenegro" was posted on 14 November.
As of 2008, open registration for .me is not yet available[3] but domain name servers do locate .me and an initial set of active .me domains includes the Government of Montenegro, the University of Montenegro and the registry itself:

Are you ready for .me?
An English language slogan, ".me is about YOU!", has been adopted and a rollout schedule has been posted. The 2008 schedule to bring .me online,[4] announced April 8, is:
March 24 | Government second level domains, migration from cg.yu to co.me/org.me/net.me/its.me - Montenegro only |
March 25 - April 16 | Requests for migration from cg.yu to co.me/org.me/net.me/its.me |
April 18 - April 21 | Initial requests processed and domains go live |
May 1 - May 6 | Initial applications from Montenegrin entities allowed to be submitted directly. |
May 6 - May 20 | General Sunrise; accredited registrars allowed into registry. Domains with multiple applicants will be auctioned after this period ends. |
June 6 - June 26 | Landrush and applications opened for newly-accredited registrars. |
July 17 | Open Registration, except for a few "premium names" to be auctioned later. |
